Enhance labour rights for gig workers
Invited guests and participants during the #WhatsNext? Future of Work and Business, The Next Frontier conversation at Metta Nairobii in Riverside on October 21, 2021.
The rise of the global gig economy where more people are working as freelancers and side-jobs, fuelled by increased access to smartphones and internet connectivity, has transformed Kenya's employment landscape. This has ushered a new era of flexibility, autonomy, and remote working.
Platforms like Uber, Bolt, Jumia, and Glovo have empowered Kenyans to engage in freelance and short-term work, significantly contributing to this economic shift.
