Platform work provides essential income and opportunities to many. However, lacking protection from employment law or collective bodies, many platform workers face low pay, income volatility, and poor working conditions.

Fairwork and the Resolution Foundation are hosting a workshop to share knowledge on building fairness into platform models, infrastructures and operations. This will be an inclusive space where we share information on Fairwork's principles, facilitate discussions on ‘fairness’ in platform work, and leave room for questions from platform founders and developers.

You should come to this event if:

You have an idea for a digital labour platform
You are a founder of or part of the team at an existing digital labour platform
You are interested in digital labour platforms and how to improve pay, rights and conditions for gig workers

Drinks and snacks will be provided. Toynbee Hall is an accessible venue.

If you have any questions about the event, please contact emma.selinger@resolutionfoundation.org.

Fairwork is an organisation committed to highlighting best and worst labour practices in the platform economy. Their goal is to show that better, and fairer, jobs are possible in the platform economy.

The Resolution Foundation is an independent think-tank focused on improving the living standards of those on low-to-middle incomes. They lead the WorkerTech partnership to back early-stage tech that improves the experience of work for low-paid and precarious workers.
