The purpose of the paper is to present the conceptual framework and key indicators for researching the consequences of precarious work on social inequality (in Slovenia) on micro (indicators of quality of life), mezzo (responses at work organizations, trade union and other interest links) and macro level (political and interest movements, groups with more frequent precarious forms of work, social risks, poverty, income inequalities, social mobility). In the second part, we the findings of a qualitative research on the non-probability accidental sample of 40 people performing atypical forms of work (student work, work through agencies, self-employed working for one client, work through platforms) in Slovenia are presented. From the point of view of the aforementioned indicators, we can assume that at the micro level the greatest risk is the work through agencies and the status of a self-employed working for one client. The mezzo and macro levels show signs of activity, which can be further enhanced by the findings of further research.

COBISS.SI-ID: 5206885The ILO minimum standards of social security might not be of the newest date, but they are not to be disregarded. Analysed are the standards binding for Slovenia. The characteristics of the right to social security are emphasised, which is based on solidarity, the connective tissue of every successful society. It is established that the minimum standards importantly shape definitions of social risks, rights and duties stemming from the social security system and procedures for their enforcement. They could play a vital role when delineating between public and private responsibility in cases of sickness or old-age.
