This paper exams the specific reality of the exercise of collective labour rights in the digital economy in context of industry 4.0, specifically about problems that working on platforms create. Social dialogue plays an essential role, which includes not only traditional trade unions but also groups of self-representation of platform workers. In fact, ILO institutions and the European Union institutions, consider social dialogue like something neccesary to deal with the challenges posed by this new work reality extended all over the world. The reality shows that the organization of labour interest model in changing, as well as the collective action mechanisms that are been adopted. For this reason we need first the recognition of labour rights to all of this workers and then, the reorganization of the collective structure and tools of action, and an effective collective bargaining. In short, this work enphasizes the protection of collective rights of workers who have not yet been able to obtain answers about the legal nature of their work.
