Over the past decade, the rapid technological advancement has led to the emergence of the so-called “gig economy”. This term often refers to a market system whereby platform companies engage temporary or freelance workers to perform “gig” work, often through digital platforms. Well-known examples are car ride companies and food delivery companies.
Gig workers usually are not paid a regular wage, but are paid for the “gig” work they do. They usually do not have a formal employment relationship with the platform companies, and have flexibility as to when and where to work. As such, many platform companies have tended to treat gig workers as self-employed persons or independent contractors, rather than their employees or workers.
