Abstract

With the rise of technology in every aspect of our lives, the gig economy has become a viable field for alternate job arrangements. This study examines the variables influencing the use of gig workers in long-term digital platforms in the IT industry. In addition, the study envisions a future in gig work that would allow IT workers to practice autonomy and attain new employment prospects. The study proposes a conceptual framework using structured equation modelling and AMOS software to ascertain the relationship between human resource management and gig work. We find that a high level of competitiveness, extended login hours, and late-night delivery are the most important hurdles to be surmounted. We also offer this paper as a liaison between the disciplines of economics and human resource management.
