This indicator shows factors influencing regular platform workers' working time and schedules on online platforms. Regular platform workers are defined as those who had worked on digital platforms at least occasionally in the past 6 months. Working at least occasionally aggregates three answer categories: 'I worked irregularly or occasionally, from time to time’, ‘I worked regularly for a period of less than three months’ and ‘I worked regularly for a period of more than three months’.
The indicator is based on responses to the question: What factors influenced your working time and schedules on online platforms in the period of the past 6 months? Respondents could select up to 3 of the below factors that had the most influenced their work on online platforms.
More information on the methodological aspects of EIGE’s survey of platform workers can be obtained in the technical report.
