Platform work is based on contracts, and workers do not have guarantees of secure income flow and social protection. This makes platform work most similar to informal work, the precariousness of which is substantially observed in developing economies and greatly experienced by women (Berg et al. 2018). These raise important questions: What can be done to realize the full potential of platform work? How can the country ensure that inequalities do not deepen and widen? How can it ensure decent work? How can platform work become sustainable?
