What is ETP18?ETP18 is a survey database on the key characteristics of platform economy activities and platform workers' perceptions in Argentina in 2018. It was produced for the IDB publication Platform Economy and Employment: What Is It Like to Work for an App in Argentina? Which platforms were included in the survey?The survey covered workers from 11 selected platforms: Mercado Libre, Airbnb, Uber, Cabify, Zolvers, Ando, Glovo, Rappi, Workana, Freelancer and IguanaFix. How large is the sample?The database comprises a sample of 603 cases. What geographic area and year does the data cover?The data cover platform workers in Argentina in 2018. How was the sample selected?A triangulation of selection strategies was implemented because workers were not equally easy to access across platforms. The sample was non-probabilistic, and the number of respondents per platform was determined using uniform quotas that considered the accessibility of workers for each platform. Is the sample statistically representative of all platform workers in Argentina?No. Because the sample is non-probabilistic and based on quotas, it is not designed to be statistically representative of all platform workers in Argentina; results are best interpreted as exploratory insights into the platform economy. What topics can this dataset be used to study?It supports research on the digital economy, digital platforms, labor markets and formal labor, focusing on the characteristics of platform economy activities and workers' perceptions of the platforms they work for. Who created and published this dataset?It was created by Javier Madariaga, César Buenadicha Sánchez, Erika Molina and Christoph Ernst, and published by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). What files and formats are included?The dataset includes the survey database as an XLSX (Excel) file and a metadata sheet as a PDF file.
