Forms of precarious work

Up one level

Precariousness in the world of work mainly arises from contractual arrangements under which work is performed. This includes: stand-by, temporary, employment-agency, casual, part-time, seasonal contracts, pseudo self-employment, no direct or an unclear employer/employee relationship, poor protection against dismissal, and lack of – or limited access of workers – to exercise their rights at work.
