Creative/cultural sectors are often dominated by working arrangements, learning practises and access mechanisms to professions that do not conform to typical notions of professionalisation and formal dependent work. Conditions in the cultural/creative sectors often reinforce the image of fluid occupational categories and volatile work/professional identities. These include the lack of a regulatory framework for access to the professions, the existence of informal learning pathways, the -simultaneous or successive- multiple job holding with very different working arrangements and the significantly high rates of invisible/unpaid labour.

Work in CCI is characterised by excessive flexibility, as self-employment, freelancing, part
time work, intermittent work, intentional or enforced multi-employment (in other
artistic/creative or non-artistic activities) are the dominant forms of its organisation.
