Health, Safety, Well-Being and Economic Security Implications of Gig Work: An Interdisciplinary Perspective

Abstract: 

We agree that worker health, safety, well-being and economic security are complicated issues, so how are we addressing them? Single-pronged solutions are most common: training programs, wellness programs, mobile apps, or coaches, for example. But have we moved the needle? To do better, we need interdisciplinary solutions that will integrate the best knowledge and practice in order to create work and work environments that ensure healthy and safe behavior, facilitate well-being, and promote economic security.
