Fairwork Colombia Ratings 2022: Rising Cost of Living and Decent Incomes in the Platform Economy

This second Fairwork Colombia report presents a comprehensive analysis of working conditions in digital labour platforms in a changing political and economic context.

The report, which marks the second cycle of Fairwork research on digital labour platforms in Colombia, assesses 11 platforms in three sectors: domestic, ride-hailing and delivery services.

It highlights two significant findings. First, it finds a noticeable disparity in terms of fair working conditions for workers in different sectors, with important differences in scores seen in platforms with better regulatory backgrounds such as domestic work, and platforms with looser regulation such as ride-hailing and delivery platforms. Second, it details how the increase of cost of living has impacted workers.
