The Gig Economy
The "gig economy" is a relatively recent term coined to describe a range of working arrangements that have previously been denoted as precarious, flexible and contingent. In 2016, an estimated 7 million UK workers fell into this category, or 22.2 per cent of the workforce, a rise from 18.1 per cent in 2006. Borrowed from musicians, a "gig" describes a one-night performance, but in the context of general employment, it covers the self-employed who work for hire, those on temporary, short-term contracts and on zero-hours contracts.
The ramifications of an increasingly insecure workforce are complex and have implications not only for individuals and Given that the main thrust of employment protection and regulation over the past twenty years has been aimed at those in permanent, full-time employment, almost a quarter of working adults do not enjoy the benefits that such directives enforce.
