- Understanding the platform economy has been held back in part by a lack of definitional clarity. A new white paper by the World Economic Forum, The Promise of Platform Work: Understanding the Ecosystem, maps the different categories of digital work/service platform and the business-model-specific and cross-cutting opportunities and challenges they pose for workers.
- The white paper includes SIA data and is designed to help policymakers and other stakeholders be more informed about such platforms and about the people using them to work; to support constructive and balanced debate; to aid the design of effective solutions; and to help digital work/services platforms, labour organisations, and others to build alliances. This initiative is part of the World Economic Forum’s Platform for Shaping the Future of the New Economy and Society.
