Description
Summary:The purposes of the study are to analyse the current state of development of platform employment in the Russian Federation, to assess the impact on the labour market and economy as a whole, and to identify key barriers, risks, and development prospects. As part of the study, a new approach to segmentation of current platform employment services is also being designed. The methodology in this work is based on the application of general scientific methods such as theoretical and comparative analysis, classification, systematisation, and synthesis. The results obtained during the analysis demonstrate that the spread of the platform employment, although it carries significant advantages for all sides of the employment process, also leads to a fundamental change in the usual hiring processes. It has been revealed that new risks appear for both employers and employees, the implementation of which can lead to adverse consequences for them. The key result of the study is a prepared list of the main barriers and risks to the introduction and development of the platform employment for the labour market and economy as a whole as well as opportunities and prospects for the spread of this format. At the same time, it is revealed that in many ways the external environment for the development of the platform employment is favourable and awaits the institutionalisation of a new format of labour relations.
