Abstract

The processes of precarization actively developing at the present time are examined in this article. Precarization is considered to be the process of increasing the importance of atypical employment forms, accompanied by a decrease in the level of realization of labor rights and social protection of workers. The particular attention is paid to the problems of strengthening the precarization processes in the context of the development of various forms of labor activity organization based on the use of digital technologies. The most striking manifestation of the regulation lack of labor rights and, as a result, the development of precarization processes is manifested in relation to those categories of workers who offer their services to the consumer through “online platforms”. In this way, the article substantiates the need to separate these employees into a separate category and, as a result, the implementation of legal regulation of their rights and obligations, as well as the peculiarities of interaction with employers. At the same time, this article states the necessity of ensuring the adaptive orientation of the development of legal regulation systems of labor relations, which should be a barrier to the development of precarization processes in the context of the digital transformation of the entire socio-economic system.
