{"title":"Social insurance for gig workers: Insights from a discrete choice experiment in Malaysia","authors":"Yashodhan Ghorpade, Amanina Abdur Rahman, Alyssa Jasmin","doi":"10.1111/issr.12365","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/issr.12365","url":null,"abstract":"<p>The rise of “gig” work globally has led to both enthusiasm for its potential to create lucrative employment for a large number of workers, as well as concerns about its implications for social protection. Even where social insurance systems allow for voluntary coverage, take-up among gig workers has remained low, leaving them unprotected against a range of risks. Looking at the Malaysian labour market, this article investigates whether the low take-up of social security coverage among gig workers can be explained by the inability or unwillingness of these workers to make the necessary social insurance contributions? We deploy a novel vignette-based experiment to ascertain gig workers’ willingness to pay for social insurance coverage. We find a large unmet need for social insurance among gig workers, as well as a high level of willingness to pay for unemployment insurance, retirement savings, and work-related injury insurance. Our analysis suggests that gig workers could benefit more from better tailored, more flexible, and more easily accessible instruments for social insurance, rather than from subsidies or matching contributions alone. We also find evidence of substitution between distinct insurance instruments; those gig workers with access to retirement savings are less willing to pay for unemployment insurance, and those with private medical insurance are less likely to contribute to the public work-related injury insurance programme. This underlines the need to consider a wider range of insurance instruments for gig workers, including those offered by the private sector.</p><p>L’essor du travail de plateforme dans le monde entier a fait naître un enthousiasme face à sa capacité à créer des emplois rémunérés pour de nombreux travailleurs, mais aussi des inquiétudes concernant ses conséquences du point de vue de la protection sociale. Même lorsque les systèmes d’assurance sociale permettent une couverture volontaire, les travailleurs de plateforme sont peu nombreux à utiliser ce droit, si bien qu’ils restent dépourvus de protection contre de nombreux risques. Cet article, qui porte sur le marché du travail de la Malaisie, examine si ce taux de recours faible s’explique par l’incapacité ou le refus de ces travailleurs de verser les cotisations de sécurité sociale nécessaires. Nous faisons appel à une expérimentation par vignettes novatrice pour évaluer le consentement des travailleurs de plateforme à cotiser pour accéder à une couverture sociale. Nous constatons l’ampleur des besoins d’assurance sociale non couverts parmi ces travailleurs, de même qu’un fort consentement à payer pour avoir droit à l’assurance chômage, au régime d’épargne-retraite et à l’assurance contre les accidents du travail. Notre analyse laisse penser que les travailleurs de plateforme pourraient tirer un meilleur parti de mécanismes d’assurance sociale plus adaptés, plus souples et accessibles plus facilement, que de subventions ou de l’abondement des cotisations.

Survival analysis and Cox proportional hazard models are employed to analyse the impact that the scheme has had on the job-finding rate and the chances of retaining employment once individuals who were previously on benefits find a job. The analyses are based on high-quality national data on the whole population of beneficiaries and their employment histories. The results show that the scheme doubles the job-finding probability, whilst the chance of job termination drops by 11.8 percentage points for eligible individuals. Furthermore, the scheme's impact once it finally tapers out is not different from the first 36 months, showing that its impact is robust in the medium term.</p><p>Cet article porte sur le régime de diminution progressive des prestations introduit à Malte en 2014 afin de rompre l’engrenage de la pauvreté.

Les analyses reposent sur des données nationales de grande qualité portant sur l’ensemble des bénéficiaires et sur leur parcours professionnel. Elles montrent que le régime multiplie par deux la probabilité d’accéder à un emploi et réduit de 11,8 points de pourcentage le risque de perte d’emploi des bénéficiaires.

That remittances offer a means to finance social protection programmes demonstrates the possibilities presented by international migration not only as regards improving social protection coverage but in contributing towards achieving target 1.3 of the Sustainable Development Goals 2030 Agenda. This article addresses voluntary insurance programmes introduced in Ecuador, Guatemala and Mexico for nationals working abroad and by means of which the families of such international migrant workers can also access health care and benefits in their home countries.

Cette réforme transformera en profondeur les prestations versées par le premier pilier. L’article porte cependant sur les changements qui toucheront le deuxième pilier, formé des pensions professionnelles, et qui concerneront à la fois les cotisations et les prestations. Ce projet s’inscrit dans le prolongement d’une série de réformes qui ont progressivement fait évoluer le modèle à prestations définies basé sur le salaire final qui était dominant il y a 20 ans pour le transformer en un modèle collectif à cotisations définies. Nous avançons que ces réformes constituent une réponse aux mutations de l’environnement extérieur, par exemple au vieillissement de la population et à une baisse séculaire des taux d’intérêt. La réforme à venir répond à la volonté de créer un régime caractérisé par une dimension individuelle plus forte et par un lien plus étroit avec le marché du travail, et dans lequel les risques de taux d’intérêt ne sont pas partagés entre les générations. Néanmoins, le nouveau contrat de pension demeure en partie collectif puisque les actifs des cotisants sont investis collectivement et qu’un fonds de solidarité peut être utilisé pour assurer un partage intergénérationnel des risques.</p><p>En los últimos años, un pequeño número de programas de protección social contributivos en América Latina se ha extendido a los trabajadores migrantes de forma voluntaria, cuya afiliación se financia gracias a las remesas de estos trabajadores.

In this article, we assess the performance of government-run social assistance in Zimbabwe. Our assessment begins in 2016 when the National Social Protection Policy Framework (NSPPF) was promulgated to maximize returns on social investments. Utilizing a systematic review approach, we collated literature published between 2016–2023. We find that despite adopting the NSPPF, social protection programming remains a challenge in Zimbabwe. We find that the disbursement of transfers to beneficiaries are delayed, benefits are misaligned with market forces due to inflation, most programmes are run without monitoring and evaluation structures, funding in the sector remains inadequate to reduce poverty and vulnerability, and no grievance and redress mechanisms exist. Our synthesis underscores the need for the refreshment of the social contract in Zimbabwe, a renewal of political will to finance social assistance programmes, engagement to transform policy into action, the expansion of the civic space to ensure citizens effectively participate in calling for social assistance, as well as concerted efforts towards harmonizing existing social assistance programmes.

This article sheds light on the domestic political and institutional processes that led to the implementation and design of universal cash transfers in Hong Kong (China), Japan, Republic of Korea, Singapore and Taiwan (China). Overall, the analysis reveals that, within the framework of universality, a nuanced, diverse and dynamic set of operational choices emerge.
