Abstract

Recently, Chhattisgarh's workplace culture has undergone a fundamental shift. The fourth Industrial Revolution and the existence of a workforce made up of several generations with different needs have sped up the process. While many industries were struggling, on the one hand, notions like virtual reality, flexible time, flexible workspaces, and flexible workforce became realities for a select few. A change was noticed. There have been many part-time or temporary positions in the delivery, home services, food and beverage, and e-commerce industries that are ideal for freelancers and people searching for short-term assignments. These individuals, also known as gig workers, have helped Chhattisgarh develop and make significant contributions to the gig economy. It's interesting to note that both professional and unskilled people turned to the gig economy for relief. Amazon, Flipkart, Uber, Ola, and Urban Company are just a few of the platforms that have been brought to Chhattisgarh that offer gig jobs, whether they are rural or urban. The study's goals are to comprehend the gig workforce and gig economy, the advantages it provides to workers and businesses, its impact on the Chhattisgarh economy, and the function of gig employment platforms. The researchers continue to explore the problems faced by gig workers and potential fixes.
