This book investigates how paid care work and employment are being
transformed by policies of social care individualisation in the
context of new gig economies of care. Drawing on a case study of
the creation of a new individualised care market under Australia's
National Disability Insurance Scheme the book provides important
insights into possible futures for social care employment where
care is treated as an individual consumer service. Bringing
together sociological, political science and socio-legal approaches
the book demonstrates how, in individualised care markets and with
ineffective labour laws, risks of business and employment are
devolved to frontline care workers. The book argues for an urgent
re-evaluation of current policy approaches to care and for new
regulatory approaches to protect workers in diverse forms of
employment.
