Peter Holtum

Peter Holtum is an Honorary Fellow and Lecturer at the School of Social Science, University of Queensland. His research focuses on labor economics, gig economy dynamics, and precarious work arrangements, with emphasis on worker identities and policy implications.

Research interests center on sociological analyses of emerging work paradigms, including:

• Intersectional experiences of gig workers
• Labor resistance strategies in insecure employment
• Policy frameworks for on-demand economies
• Migrant labor comparative studies

Publications demonstrate consistent focus on gig economy impacts, with methodological strengths in qualitative analysis and policy evaluation. Recent work examines Uber driver experiences across migrant/non-migrant cohorts and critiques of flexibility narratives.
