The Charter of Principles for Good Platform Work
Digital work/service platforms can offer affordable services to consumers, allow companies and clients greater opportunities to access talent, and provide flexible opportunities for earning income. But the rapid adoption of technology, innovation in business models and the diverse ways in which people work through platforms pose challenges for the current rules and laws governing work and safety nets.

But the rapid adoption of technology, innovation in business models and the diverse ways in which people work through platforms pose challenges for the current rules and laws governing work and safety nets.
The Charter of Principles for Good Platform Work is a ground-breaking initiative by leading companies in the sector to collectively identify and commit to key principles that in their view should underpin good platform work. This initiative is part of the World Economic Forum’s Platform for Shaping the Future of the New Economy and Society.
