AThe gig economy, where workers take on short-term or freelance tasks through an app rather than holding a traditional permanent job, has grown substantially over the past decade, reshaping how some industries think about staffing entirely.
BWorkers are often drawn to this model by the flexibility it offers, choosing when and how much to work, which appeals particularly to people balancing other responsibilities, such as study or caring for family members.
CThis flexibility comes with trade-offs that are not always obvious at first, since gig workers typically do not receive benefits like paid sick leave, employer-funded healthcare, or guaranteed minimum hours that traditional employees often take for granted.
DPolicymakers in several regions are now debating how to classify gig workers fairly, attempting to preserve the flexibility workers value while still extending some of the basic protections traditional employment has historically provided.
