Purpose The purpose of this paper is to review "institutional experimentation" for protecting workers in response to the contraction of the standard employment relationship and the corresponding rise of "non-standard" forms of paid work. Design/methodology/approach The paper draws on the existing research and knowledge base of the authors as well as a thorough review of the extant literature relating to: non-standard employment contracts; sources of labour supply engaging in non-standard work; exogenous pressures on the employment relationship; intermediaries that separate the management from the control of labour; and entities that subvert the employment relationship.

The paper argues that these are indicative of an emergent "patchwork of rules" which are instructive for scholars, policymakers, workers' representatives and employers seeking solutions to the contraction of the traditional regulatory model. Originality/value The paper addresses calls to examine the "institutional intersections" that have informed the changing ways that work is conducted and regulated. These intersections transcend international, national, sectoral and local units of analysis, as well as supply chains, fissured organisational dynamics, intermediaries and online platforms. The analysis also encompasses the broad range of stakeholders including businesses, labour and community groups, nongovernmental organisations and online communities that have influenced changing institutional approaches to employment protection. ...Hide
