What is Gig Worker?

A Gig Worker is an individual who works on a temporary or freelance basis, typically taking short-term jobs or assignments rather than having a permanent, full-time position with a single employer. These workers often engage in various projects or "gigs" across different industries, using platforms like ride-sharing services, freelancing websites, or consulting opportunities to find work. Gig workers are generally not entitled to the same benefits as full-time employees and often have flexible work schedules.
