Abstract

The start of the digital era in the light of the fourth industrial revolution has brought new models of flexible working within the employment sphere. The traditional models of employment relationships have been augmented by new forms of working. The paper deals with forms of dependent work influenced by digital technologies and it deals with the protection of such an employee. It also outlines ways of working while using digital collaborative platforms carried out by a physical entity independently and flexibly. The influence of digitalization on the labour market is undeniable and when applied new challenges arise which have to be also dealt with by employment legislation. Which legislative changes are necessary and which fields of law they will concern is a subject of expert discussions and analyses.
