Research Gap

The Research Gap in the study of Gig workers in India is the lack of comprehensive data on the demographics, working conditions, and experiences of Gig workers across various sectors. While there have been some studies on specific segments of the Gig Economy, such as ride haling or food delivery, there is a need for more systematic and cross sectoral research that covers a wider range of Gig work.

Furthermore, there is limited research on the social and economic implications of Gig work for both Gig workers and society as a whole. This Includes issues such as income volatility, job security, acers to social protections and benefits and the impact of Gig work on traditional employment and labor markets.

Finally, there is a need for more research on policy interventions and regulatory frameworks that can effectively address their challenges faced by Gig workers in India. This includes examining the feasibility and impact of various models of social protection and benefits as well as the potential for collective bargaining and other forms of worker organization in the Gig Economy. As my view, In India, No separate law for Gig workers.

In compare to other countries Gig workers and our India gig workers, both have right to work. In covid19 time Indian Gig workers work 24 hrs food delivery, Amazon delivery, emergency hospitality workers. They have affected COVID 19 but that time also the Indian government didn't Enact any social security and benefits for Gig workers.

They have affected mentally stress, so, any laws didn't line any appreciate in them for working for covid19 period also, it's all are in my view in research gap.

Hypothesis
A possible hypothesis for research on social security for Gig workers could be "providing social security benefits to Gig workers Improves their financial stability and reduces their reliance on government assistance programs, resulting in a more equitable and sustainable economy".

This hypothesis suggests that social security benefits, such as retirement savings plans, health law coverage and unemployment insurance, can help Gig workers overcome the challenges of working in a Non-traditional employment arrangement. If also suggests that providing such benefits can chair positive effects on the broader economy, by reducing the burden on government assistance programme and promoting more equitable income distribution.

Hypothesis is nothing but, tentative answer to the research question and that shows a problem area and which need to be tested in the course of research. The social security for online workers effectively not implements in separate laws we saw some news about, "Gig workers suicide for not permanent Job, salary, no social dignity form people.

The Rajasthan government take first initiative step to give budget in budget day but, if, how to execute, if they take effectively and it's not use of it. The Gig workers economy was weaker, they have don't respect form people some people discriminate, insult, but no none punishment for violation of dignity some to worker this field, but, the society also not responsible for Gig workers.
