Since gig employees know they’re only working at this company for a short time, they may be looking for the next opportunity before your project is finished

Union  should be set up for gig economy workers because they are vulnerable.  Any unfair treatment received can be channel through this union.  Or benefits, insurance, compensation should be covered can be discussed too.
The pros is that both party employee and employer can communicate.
As compare to NTUC, this organisation might not be strong if the member is less.

There should be a union for gig economy workers to improve their working conditions and secure more job protection because they also deserve the same workplace rights as the others and there are also an increase number of gig works and other alternative work arrangements.

Cons: It is not fixed

Gig employees are known for working at company for a short time. It also mean that it is not stable and they also always have to look for their next opportunity even before the current project is done.

Cons: Lack of benefits

Benefits does not provide to gig workers by the organisation because they are considered as a independent contractors which are not completely considered “employees” of the business.

They are allowed to work any of the hours they desire. In most cases, there will be a deadline for the task given but when they work on it is completely up to them.

I feel that there should be a need for a union for the gig-economy as the gig-economy should also be protected the similarly as the others. Pros of having a union for gig-economy includes allowing the gig-economy with better welfares, ability to speak freely for the people and most importantly ensures protection for the people. However the cons includes having to pay for union fee, in a way creates a bad relationship between employees and management, and most importantly it will not benefit everyone in picture.

I think that there should be a union for gig economy! As it is a freelance contract / short term and top industries are hiring gig workers such as, construction, IT, administration, healthcare, and creative fields.

Their pros are:

1.  Flexible Employees -Anytime, anywhere and even students.

2. Low Commitment - If employee is unsatisfied with the work, they will be uncomfortable relationship with your current company, employees can leave the company and join another.

3. Remote Working - Flexibility to work from anywhere.

Their cons are:

1. High Stress - There is no regularly fixed income.

2. No safety Net - They will not receive healthcare and retirement benefits.

3. Taxes - They are responsible for paying their own income tax.

I personally feel that they should create a gig-economy union as make money by matching with individual clients and completing work, or “gigs” for those clients to earn their money. According The BLS, 1.6 million workers are getting their income from the gig economy.

Regardless of how long the gig is, workers who earn their income through the gig economy must have a next project once their current one is done as to maintain their income.

Pros: Flexibility, Greater independence, A variety of jobs, etc.

Cons: No benefits, Quarterly taxes & personal expenses, more stress, isolation & lack of cultural solidarity, lower income, etc.
