When you hear about the “gig economy,” you might think about an army of creative freelancers who are traveling the world while working. That’s some of the people represented in the gig economy, but there are also people doing this work because they’re not ready to retire, or because they can’t find full-time employment.
On this episode, host Kathryn Minshew interviews Sarah Kessler, journalist and author of Gigged: The End of the Job and the Future of Work, to go beyond the myths of gig work.
What they talked about:
– The real impact of the gig economy on workers and companies
– What types of people are moving into gig work
– Tips and best practices for people considering gig work and for companies hiring gig workers
