Description

Women have long experienced structural barriers to participation in the labour market and career progression in traditional workplaces . Digital platforms represent a new, less formalised, less bureaucratic approach to work, premised on worker autonomy and control over flexible hours, locations and tasks, and in which men and women experience equal access to work opportunities . Globally and locally emerging research challenges this assumption and draws attention to the complex experiences of women undertaking digital platform work—often as vulnerable workers, and in differing labour market positions .

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
