Good Morning, Students!

 

The gig economy refers to a labor market that relies on short-term contracts, temporary positions, or freelance work rather than permanent, long-term employment. Workers in this system often take on multiple gigs, which allows for flexibility but can also lead to income instability and a lack of traditional employment benefits like health insurance or retirement plans. As technology continues to evolve, platforms like Uber, Fiverr, and Upwork have played a significant role in the rise of the gig economy, reshaping how people approach work and earning a living.

 

Diversify your income streams to create financial stability in the gig economy.
