Gig Work Platforms

Japan is suffering from a shrinking population and an aging population. With fewer children and a growing elderly population, labor shortages are becoming more serious. Gig workers, who are contracted on an hourly, daily, or project basis, are becoming a popular, new type of labor force. Gig work platforms facilitate connections between people seeking temporary or short-term work and companies looking to hire them.
