This book explores the legal and practical implications of the digital age for employment and industrial relations. To that end, the book analyses the problems arising from the digitalisation of work and the negative effects on working conditions in fields such as platform work, robotisation, discrimination, data protection, and freedom of speech. It also looks at how to ensure decent working conditions for workers affected by digitalisation, by investigating the minimum standards that should be ensured to mitigate negative effects – and how these could be best guaranteed by legislation and collective bargaining.

The book presents a theoretical framework on the impact of automatisation, robotics, and digitalisation on the very basic principles of individual and collective labour law. The chapters provide an in-depth analysis of new patterns of work prompted by digitalisation, including: classification of platform workers; recognition of employment and social security rights; competition law aspects of platform work; remote (tele)work arrangements; algorithmic decision-making and remote surveillance; data protection and privacy; and social media in working environments.

The book is an important reference for academics and researchers, social partners, and policy makers with an interest in labour law and industrial relations.

Tamás Gyulavári is Professor of Labour Law and Chair of the Labour Law Department at Pázmány Péter Catholic University in Budapest, Hungary. Emanuele Menegatti is Professor of Labour Law and Dean of the School of Economics and Management at the University of Bologna, Italy.
