    Labour market collectivism: New solidarities of highly skilled freelance workers in medicine, IT and the film industry
    (2022) Apitzsch, Birgit; Wilkesmann, Maximiliane; Ruiner, Caroline; Bassyiouny, Mona; Ehlen, Ronny; Schulz, Lena
    Highly skilled freelance workers are mainly depicted as a challenge to trade unionism because of their mobility, market power and specific interests in organisational support. The authors explore the manifestations of collectivism of highly skilled freelance workers on the basis of semi-structured interviews with 14 highly skilled freelancers and 35 representatives of intermediaries such as trade unions, professional associations, staffing agencies and cooperatives in medicine, IT and film in Germany. The results reveal new forms and dynamics of labour market collectivism arising from concurrent conflicts and negotiations of job access and working conditions.
