This study aims to discuss work on digital platforms. Therefore, it addresses labor relations in the information society; explains the “new” figures that emerged with parasubordination; and it explains what is conventionally called uberization, emphasizing the uncertainty and instability to which workers are exposed. For the development of this research, as a methodology, we opted for bibliographical research carried out on legislation, doctrines, articles and other academic research that could add knowledge to the subject under analysis, allowing us to conclude that the flexibility observed in work developed on digital platforms almost always implies in precariousness of work relations. There are no guarantees and no right guaranteed to the worker who starts to receive for what he produces, which creates insecurity and discouragement. However, it is believed that this is a trend that is here to stay. Maybe it’s a way to alleviate unemployment, but there is no doubt, in terms of rights, it implies serious setbacks.
