【COVID-19】零工经济缓解就业压力 - 2020年03月20日

Many people who have lost their jobs or are fearful of losing employment because of the coronavirus outbreak have resorted to the “gig economy” to keep themselves afloat and even prepare themselves for new careers once the epidemic is over.
Designers have become online sales people or ride-hailing drivers; chefs have become deliverymen; marketing specialists are operating social media accounts and job seekers have become adept at virtual interviews.
The gig economy is loosely defined as the free market system where businesses contract with independent workers to fill short-term, temporary positions.
