Gig Workers in India UPSC

A survey on Gig workers found that 85% of them work above 8 hours a day as drivers and riders and within that, 21% work sweat it out for more than 12 hours a day. It endorsed that governments and regulators rename the gig, platform and e-trade workers as “gig” is something taken up for a short period.
The survey report said that “e-commerce workers” could be a better nomenclature to deal with them because, without the final-mile transport by an individual, e-commerce can not feature.
