Scope
During the past decade, scholars from different disciplines have
paid increasing attention to examine the design and development of
crowd-based platforms and the intelligence and innovation arising
from crowdsourced contests and competitions. Studies on the
technical systems and collective intelligence are informative, but
our understanding of the crowdsourcing phenomenon cannot be
complete without a comprehensive understanding of the crowd
itself, the work made available on the digital platform, work
conditions, and its institutional, regulatory and societal
impacts.
This minitrack calls for research on the following three critical
aspects of crowdsourcing and gig work, including (1) work
conditions for crowd workers, (2) the impact of crowdsourcing and
gig work, and (3) information technology and gig work. Potential
issues and topics on crowdsourcing and digital workforce include,
but are not limited to:
* Employment relations in the gig economy
* Ethical issues in the gig labor market and managing the gig
workforce
* Gig work and workers in the times of COVID-19
* Gig work risk, worker behavior and performance
* Gig workers’ participation, motivation and work-life balance
* Gig work conditions
* Global workforce in crowdsourcing and gig economy
* Information technology and gig work
* Labor agency in the gig labor market
* Online communities of gig workers
* Organizational and regulatory challenges in the gig economy
* Psychological aspects of digital platforms on workers (e.g.,
Technostress, Well-being)
* Regulatory oversight of gig work platforms and labor market
* Skill development and career pathways of gig workforce
* Technology advancement, AI and future of work
