If we meet the needs of those made most vulnerable by the impacts of new technologies, we will serve the interests of everyone in society. ๐ซ
Here are profiles of some of the gig workers we spoke to: ๐

For our Better Work report, we spoke to gig workers up and down the country about their experiences. ๐บ๏ธ
This report, and its recommendations, is written for the furthest first. For those who do not benefit from all of the positives of working in the gig economy.

The #gigeconomy should benefit all those who work in it. #techforgood #SocEnt #futureofwork #BetterGigWork #diversity #lifelonglearning #careerdevelopment
โThe platform economy enables flexible work but not everyone benefits equally...technology can & should be used responsibly to create a fair, inclusive & sustainable democratic society.โ

To close out the launch, @Marthalanefox encourages people in whatever work they do to always put people at the heart of everything they do.
#BetterGigWork
Is the gig economy the future of work, or is it actually more of a blast to the past?
Jacob talks of a generational divide, the younger generation were more interested in short term fixes as opposed to the older generations interest in wider systems change.
#BetterGigWork
What kind of retraining do we need if platforms like Uber are looking to replace their workforce with autonomous cars?
Jacob gives the example of the Deliveroo academy as an example of some platforms looking to retrain workers in some way.
#BetterGigWork
What are the main opportunities to disrupt the high fixed outgoings faced by gig workers?
Sho says income smoothing is exactly what Portify is trying to do. Things like breaking down monthly payments to weekly payments can make life much easier.
#BetterGigWork
Dreams need support to make them reality and we want to make those tools accessible to all. #futureofwork #techforgood #BetterGigWork #socent #lifelonglearning
Anna Thomas, Director at the @_futureofwork, calls about the need for an economic infrastructure that allows for dreaming.
Anna brings the voice of a gig worker to the debate - "I do not have time to work on my dreams"
#BetterGigWork
Can the market solve issues in the gig economy?
Sho says absolutely not. Government legislation will be crucial.
Minimum gig wages are just the start, we need to think even bigger, Sho suggests starting to experiment with Universal Basic Income.
