Precarious work is a central factor in increasing inequality and insecurity across developed and developing countries and attention is needed to understand both the institutional, social and economic conditions that give rise to precarious work and to policies and practices that can modify its effects and promote inclusive labour markets. Funded by the Hallsworth conference fund, this workshop is an important contribution to the University of Manchester’s commitment to addressing global inequalities as a core university research theme and to promoting social responsibility.
