Abstract

The article reconstructs the meaning that the occasionality’s concept acquires in Italian labour law, on the assumption that its better definition can contribute to combating precarious employment. In this sense, it first criticises the thesis that considers occasional work as work other than continuous work. Then the meaning of occasional work is reconstructed within the category of the frequeny with which different work relationships take place between the same parties. Finally, its applicability is assessed within the framework of the discipline of the relationships provided for by Art. 54 bis d.l. n. 50/2017 and occasional self-employment under art. 2222 of the Civil Code.
