Więcej o książce

Focusing on the transformation of paid care work within the gig economy, the book analyzes the impact of social care individualization policies, particularly through Australia's National Disability Insurance Scheme. It highlights how care is increasingly viewed as a consumer service, leading to significant implications for social care employment. By integrating sociological, political, and legal perspectives, the author argues for a critical reassessment of existing care policies and advocates for new regulations to safeguard frontline workers from shifting risks associated with their roles.
