İstihdam İlişkilerinin Değişen Sınırları: Parçalanma, Çatlaklar, Yeni 'Etiketler': İş Yerinde Olanları Nasıl Analiz Ediyor ve Düzenliyoruz?

Bu makale, son yıllarda istihdam ilişkilerinin çeşitlenmesini ve işgücü piyasalarındaki çeşitli gruplar arasında değişen sınırları incelemektedir. Değişim için gerekli olan çeşitli baskıların yanı sıra birçok kesim için artan güvensizliklere de dikkat çekmektedir. Sınırları değiştirmenin etkileri, politika geliştirme, iş yönetimi ve işgücü piyasasının etkinliği için kritik sorunları gündeme getiriyorum. AB ve üye ülkeler düzeyindeki aktif gündeme rağmen sosyal partnerler ve yasal müdahaleler tarafından güçlendirilmiş önemli sorunlar devam ediyor. Söz konusu sorunlar; iş odaklı kişiye zarar verebilme potansiyeline sahip sorumlulukları ve hesap verilebilirlik temalı konuları içermektedir. İlerleyen bölümlerde Birleşik Krallıktaki ortak hukuk sistemindeki gelişmelere odaklanarak devam ediyorum. Söz konusu hukuk sistemindeki gelişmeler bazı iyileştirmeleri gerçekleştirebilmek için tutarlı ve mantıklı bir sistem dahilinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Örneğin, çalışanı serbest meslek sahibi/serbest çalışandan temelde ayıran nedir? Belirsizliklerin çoğu, iş yerindeki insanların yönetimini genellikle belirsiz ve sorunlu bırakmıştır. Bu tema üzerinden ilgili alana katkı sunulmaktadır.

The Changing boundaries ofemployment relationships: fragmentation, fissures, new ‘labels’: How do we now analyse and regulate those at work?

This article explores the diversification of employment relationships in recent decades and the shifting boundaries between various groups in labour markets. It notes the various pressures for change but also the growing insecurities for many. The implications of shifting boundaries raise critical issues for policy development, work management and labour market effectiveness. Despite an active social agenda at EU and member state level, reinforced by social partners and legal interventions, major issues remain, some, arguably, intensifying. These include questions of liability and accountability where harm us caused through work. The article then focuses on developments in the UK through its common law legal system which has led to some improvements but at the expense of a coherent and reasoned underpinning. For example, what essentially differentiates the employee from the self-employed/freelancer? Many uncertainties have often left the management of people at work imprecise and problematic.
