Resumen:
Digital intermediaries in the domestic and care work sector have gained prominence in recent years. The literature on the effects of their intervention in the sector is still very scarce. Based on a quantitative and qualitative study that includes 20 in-depth interviews with domestic workers working through the Zolvers platform in Argentina, 5 focus groups (of workers and employers) and a survey of 300 cases, this article aims to analyse the ambivalent role of these digital intermediaries. The findings of this research account for circumstances in which they contribute to the formalization of domestic work and circumstances in which they contribute to its casualization and informality.
