Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives ).

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 324, Sharing economy.

Introduction

A combination of widespread internet use, technological developments, innovation in economic models and demographic shifts has led to the emergence of a new economic model called the “sharing economy”, which enables otherwise unconnected individuals and/or organizations to make transactions of products and assets.

The sharing economy creates opportunities to connect individuals and/or organizations with unused assets and skill with those who wish to utilize them. It enables services and products to reach a wider range of consumers, to support entrepreneurship, and to create new business opportunities through enabling a flexible working style. Through the new model, the possibility of sharing and accessing assets rather than owning them could better optimize their use. The sharing economy is expected to create opportunities providing products and assets and thus positively contributes to social and environmental improvement.

On the other hand, issues such as security, service quality and reliability might not be assured to the same level as with classic business and (inter)national regulation. These potential shortcomings might not just harm users but the same fair competition among providers.

This document aims to encourage more acceptable, trustworthy operations of digital platforms by supporting the management activities of platform operators, both for profit and non-profit.

1 Scope

This document specifies general trustworthiness and safety requirements applicable to operators of digital platforms within the sharing economy. While this document does not cover system requirements for digital platforms, the document is still beneficial for system development.
