چکیده
Crowd employment platforms in Spain are a rather recent development. However, they have experienced remarkable growth during the economic crisis. The number of workers and clients has increased in the sectors already using crowd employment (including creative design), and the phenomenon has spread to other sectors such as housing and design, computing, book editing and translation (InfoCrowdsourcing, 2013; Crowdsourcing blog, 2013). Many of the Spanish platforms have extended their scope to include other countries, particularly in Latin America. Many of them have also fully translated their platforms into English in order to reach an even wider market.
