Ítem The precarity puzzle: labor and public policies in Costa Rica's Gig Economy (2023-2024)(Universidad Estatal de Moscú M.V. Lomonosov (Московский государственный университет имени М.В. Ломоносова), 2025) Méndez-Castellanos, Fernando JoséThis research presents a sociological perspective on the impact of large-scale technological platforms of the gig economy—such as the emblematic cases of Uber and Didi—on labor legislation in Costa Rica. It highlights the shortcomings of the country´s National Assembly in the creation of public policies and laws to regulate the operation of these apps and protect workers from labor precarization. Thus, the investigation aims to diagnose the current state of public policies regarding digital platforms in Costa Rica, while also exposing the ongoing inability of relevant governmental and state entities to establish solid legal frameworks to protect the rights of app-based workers in Costa Rica’s transportation and delivery sectors.
