Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this article is to analyse the issue of precarious work in Europe, where the proliferation of the new types of employment without the whole spectrum of rights associated with the standard employment relationship has engendered considerable labour market fragmentation and social polarization. Precarious work poses unique challenges to the European social model of secure employment and decent social protection. To address these challenges, we seek to analyse the reasons for the spread of precarious work in various countries in Europe to explain the different types of precarious work and to make proposals to address the phenomenon though improved labour regulation and practice.
