    ¿Des-plataformizando el mercado de trabajo? Un análisis de las disposiciones sobre “gestión algorítmica” de la propuesta de Directiva de la UE sobre el trabajo en plataformas
    (Revista jurídica de trabajo, 2022-12) Aloisi, Antonio; Potocka Sionek, Nastazja; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Los trabajadores están siendo gestionados por las tecnologías de manera creciente. Antes de extenderse a segmentos más grandes del mercado laboral, los sistemas de gestión algorítmica eran una característica distintiva del trabajo en plataformas. El ejercicio del poder a través de plataformas laborales digitales es una de las causas de las precarias condiciones de trabajo en este ámbito, una cuestión que pronto podría afectar a un grupo más amplio de trabajadores de los sectores económicos tradicionales. Este artículo aclara las disposiciones que regulan la gestión algorítmica en la propuesta de Directiva de la UE sobre la mejora de las condiciones de trabajo en las plataformas, que aborda la vigilancia automatizada y las prácticas automatizadas de toma de decisiones. La Directiva propuesta exige la divulgación de su adopción y establece derechos de información y explicación en relación con las categorías de acciones supervisadas y los parámetros considerados. Las disposiciones sobre gestión algorítmica se aplican a todos los trabajadores de plataformas, incluidos los trabajadores verdaderamente autónomos. Antes de ofrecer una visión general razonada de las medidas jurídicas previstas en el texto propuesto, este artículo aborda el proceso que condujo a la propuesta de Directiva con el fin de revelar los antecedentes y las alternativas a la formulación actual. Aborda la interacción entre el texto y otros instrumentos que regulan el despliegue de tecnologías para la gestión de los trabajadores. Los pasos destinados a hacer que las plataformas rindan cuentas son notables, pero la técnica regulatoria podría dar lugar a modelos parcialmente superpuestos, aumentando así la inseguridad jurídica y la arbitrariedad.

    De-gigging the labour market?An analysis of the 'algorithmic management' provisions in the proposed Platform Work Directive
    (IE University, 2022-07-21) Aloisi, Antonio; Potocka Sionek, Nastazja ; Aloisi, Antonio; European Commission; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Workers are increasingly being managed by technologies. Before spreading to larger segments of the labour market, algorithmic management systems were a signature feature of platform work. The exercise of power through digital labour platforms is one cause of the precarious working conditions in this area, an issue that could soon concern a wider groupof workers in traditional economic sectors.This article elucidates the provisions regulating algorithmic management in the proposed EU Directive on improvingworking conditions in platform work, which tackles automated surveillance and automated decision-making practices. The proposed Directive mandates the disclosure of their adoption and sets out information and explanation rights regarding the categories ofactions monitored and the parameters considered. Unlike rules concerning the presumption of employment status, the provisions on algorithmic management apply to all platform workers, including genuinely self-employed persons.Before offering a reasoned overview of the legal measures envisaged in the proposed text, this article grapples with the process leading to the proposed Directive in order to reveal the background and alternatives to the current formulation. It addresses the interplay between the textand other instruments regulating the deployment of technologies for managing workers.The steps intended to hold platforms to account are remarkable, but the regulatory technique could result in partially overlapping models, thereby increasing legal uncertainty and arbitrage.

    The “spillover effect” of algorithmic management and how (not) to tame it
    (Edward Elgar Publishing, 2024-04-22) Aloisi, Antonio; Potocka Sionek, Nastazja; European Union’s Erasmus+; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    This chapter delves into the implications of the algorithmic management (AM) “spillover effect”, namely the diffusion of AM systems and practices from the platform economy to conventional work settings and the broader labour market. The AM spillover is tracked across the factual, jurisprudential and legislative dimensions. The crucial questions on which this chapter is targeted are as follows. Are the existing judicial and regulatory responses keeping pace with developments? What are the lessons to be learned from the first wave of litigation concerning AM in the food delivery sector and the first generation of laws targeting AM in the platform economy? Finally, what is the way forward when it comes to addressing the AM spillover most effectively? This chapter begins by dissecting the tools and practices adopted to engage, dispatch, manage, control and assess people who perform platform work. It then examines the case law and regulatory instruments addressing AM in the platform economy and beyond at both EU and national levels. The analysis reveals a significant shift in focus towards data protection, non-discrimination, and working conditions for larger workforce segments. Moreover, a normative critique of the emerging fragmented regulatory approach is presented, contending that a comprehensive solution requires the effective implementation of the existing legal framework and the design of AM specific legislation to close the gaps in the EU and national acquis.

    Festina Lente': The ILO and EU Agendas on the Digital Transformation of Work
    (IE University, 2020-12-01) Potocka Sionek, Nastazja ; Aloisi, Antonio; European Commission; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    This article compares the International Labour Organization (ILO) and European Union (EU) agendas concerning the digital transformation of work, and addresses possible policy gaps and their implications for international and EU labour law. It critically reviews the current social acquis of both institutions and concentrates on the key analogies between the ILO’s Centenary Declaration for the Future of Work and some of the various regulatory initiatives taken by EU institutions in the context of the Pillar of Social Rights. The article finds that, despite the often articulated calls for urgent and original measures, both institutions’ programs present largely a prudent continuation of traditional narratives, failing to strengthen the adequacy of existing labour regulation regimes. Besides their predominantly non-binding nature, the efficacy of the most future-oriented instruments is profoundly undermined by the unreasonable exclusion of those workers who bear most of the brunt of social disparities accelerated by digitization and casualization of work. Also, the implementation of these initiatives may be jeopardized by complex governance methods and never soothed tensions between conflicting approaches and objectives. The study concludes that, although positive signs are emerging in the supranational legal order, much remains to be done to address the multifarious challenges brought about by the digital transformation.
