This research constitutes a contribution to ongoing studies on work via digital platforms. The aim was to investigate how the initiatives of IG Metall and STRUP can contribute to the regulation of work via platforms. The theoretical framework used was the Power Resource Approach. This was a case study involving trade unions from two European countries, Germany, and Portugal. The sources of evidence were three: interviews, documentation, and observation. The results obtained in the research pointed out weaknesses and strengths of these attempts at regulation.

Keywords : digital labour platforms; trade unions; regulation.
