Basic Income ‘Made In Italy’ And Unpaid Work: Two Sides Of Same Coin

Submitted by dfabbri on

socialeurope (01.11.2018) Italy’s draft 2019 September Budget Law, which will enter into force in January 2019, has been defined as a “courageous manoeuvre” for change by the political forces which have designed and implemented it very recently. Indeed, it may indeed take much courage to introduce a measure of basic income (the so-called ‘reddito di cittadinanza’) which is conditional upon undertaking ‘unpaid work’ in community-based services.

New forms of employment | Eurofound

Submitted by rruggia on

Across Europe, due to societal, economic and technological developments, new forms of employment are emerging that are different from traditional standard or non-standard employment in a number of ways. Some transform the relationship between employer and employee, some change work organisation and work patterns, and some do both. To date, very little is known about what characterises these new employment forms and what implications they have for working conditions and the labour market.
