Abstract

This article examines the impact of digital platforms on the nature of work and labor rights, presenting the evolution of these platforms and their classification, as well as the legal challenges faced by workers, who often lack social protection and labor rights. Various international legislations are also discussed, highlighting models of protection and deregulation, such as the cases of Uber in the UK and the "Rider Law" in Spain. Emphasis is placed on the ambiguity in the classification of workers as self-employed or employees, which complicates their access to fundamental rights.  This publication advocates the creation of a regulatory framework that recognizes a "third status" for these workers, guaranteeing rights and social protection without sacrificing labor flexibility. This approach is crucial to address labor precarization in the digital economy and ensure a balance between innovation and social justice at work.
