Rajasthan: India’s gig workers see hope in new state law #Rajasthan #Indias #gig #workers #hope #state #law

Akriti Bhatia, a labour rights activist, calls the Act “significant” as it focusses on registering gig workers, which is the first step towards bringing them under a social security net. “It also makes data transparent, including financial transactions of apps, and this can dissuade platforms from indulging in unfair practices – like deleting a rider’s data or charging arbitrary fines,” she adds.
