The good practices session of ‘A Level Playing Field for Gig Workers’ gave space to a crowdwork platform, a code of conduct, and a service provider. Examples of how it’s possible to truly contribute to improving workers' conditions.
Platform expert and member of WageIndicator Gig Team Martijn Arets first shared a map highlighting 25 good practices in the global platform economy, including bottom-up initiatives, like Worker Info Exchange, initiatives by platforms (see the Wolt Algorithmic Transparency Report), external service providers, one for all GigCV, and other categories.
The representatives of two of the mapped initiatives joined the good practices session: Markus Steinhauser, the co-founder and COO of Munich-based crowdwork platform Testbirds and one of the initiators of the Crowdworking Code of Conduct, and Ricardo Scattini, CTO and CPO at Nippy, the first online Workertech that seeks to accompany gig economy freelancers, creating benefits and services for each of them.
Martijn Arets talked with them about their projects.
