Development of a Geolocation-Based Gig Worker Support Platform

Gig economy workers face difficulties in accessing reliable job opportunities matching their skills and location, leading to income instability and uncertainty. They also lack effective tools for managing shifts, tracking earnings, monitoring expenses, and receiving timely location-based updates, which collectively diminish motivation and operational efficiency.

A large platform connecting gig economy workers with job opportunities, offering tools for income tracking, shift management, and location-based notifications to enhance worker engagement and income stability.
