Digital technologies have enabled the rise of online labour platforms that transform contemporary organisations and the way work gets done. In part one of this piece, I introduced a typology of online labour platforms and described the motivations of organisations to work with online freelancers. In part two, I outline an organisational perspective on online labour platforms. I will discuss new ways of organising with online freelancers and the questions that organisations should consider when adopting online freelancing platforms as part of their business models.
