Mecila Working Papers n° 82 – 2025 | Perceptions of Precariousness and Entrepreneurship among Informal Workers in the Platform Economy / Cristina T. Marins

The essay examines how Brazilian informal workers who heavily use social media understand and talk about concepts like “precarious work” and “entrepreneurship.”

Based on over ten years of research with workers in sectors like events, beauty, transport, and food, it shows that their views differ from academic definitions.

The study suggests that these workers often frame their situations as personal success stories rather than collective struggles, influenced by the rise of digital platforms.
