What are the principles of fair work in the gig economy and how can these be implemented at the startup and development stage of a platform? These are the two central questions of Dr Funda Ustek-Spilda's (London School of Economics) talk titled Fairwork by design, where she will introduce the five principles of fair work.
She will also discuss how software, hardware, data and network systems need to all incorporate these principles by design for a fair platform economy to become an actual reality. With examples from platform design in both geographically-tethered gig work and cloudwork (including operational, business, interface and data), she will introduce potential pathways to change, as well as the systems that are particularly exploitative.
