This study was funded by the Hans Böckler Foundation and examines the framework conditions for the successful use of this new form of work organization.

The study concludes that both employees and employers can benefit from internal crowd work. However, clear rules are needed to ensure that it works and that employees do not suffer from additional workloads, have to work in their free time or that the working atmosphere deteriorates due to increasing competitive pressure.
