Inhalt

The seminar covers several topics related to precarious employment, discussing labor market vulnerabilities and disadvantages that have been spreading in many countries. The rising disadvantages has resulted in changing the nature of work. Employees suffer from rising job insecurities and face precarity in their day-to-day life. Numerous aspects of the working conditions can render the job precarious. In an effort to have a better understanding of this complicated aspect, we will cover the various ways of measuring precarity taking into consideration its multidimensionality. In addition, we will cover the trends of precarious employment and its implications both internationally.

The aim of the seminar is to describe and explain these differences and inequalities. In particular What differences exist in the labor market? What are the causes of these differences? And what consequences or effects do these differences have, e.g. on commuting times, health and life satisfaction, longer-term outcomes? These questions will be discussed on the basis of various theories and empirical studies.
