The gig economy refers to a labor market characterized by short-term, freelance, or temporary work engagements instead of permanent employment.While the gig economy offers advantages for workers, it often falls short in customer experience, particularly in blue-collar gig work.Examples in sectors like delivery services, transportation, and home services illustrate the customer experience gap in the gig economy.Platforms can address these gaps by prioritizing customer experience through training, quality control, and customer-focused strategies.
