Core and Contingent Work in the European Union: A Comparative Analysis
 |
| Anteprima |
Labour
and social security law studies have addressed the topic of the decline
of the standard employment relationship mainly from the point of view
of the growing number of atypical relationships. Only a limited number
of studies have examined the issue from the perspective of the
differentiation between core and contingent work. Such an examination is
necessary as the increase in contingent work leads to complicated legal
questions which vary between European states depending on the type of
contingent arrangements that have become most prevalent. This book
analyses, using a comparative approach, these different types of
contingency from a national and EU perspective touching on the work
relationship from a labour as well as a social security point of view.
The aim of the book is to identify and analyse those questions adopting
an innovative approach and to put forward proposals for safeguarding
social cohesion within undertakings and European society.
