ThinkScopeThe new social security rules are set to change the landscape of work and life balance for gig and platform workers. The rules propose to extend insurance cover and health benefits to these workers, ensuring they have a safety net to fall back on.
The draft sets work-day thresholds for eligibility, making it easier for workers to understand what they need to do to qualify for these benefits.
This move is seen as a significant step towards recognizing the importance of gig and platform workers in the economy. It acknowledges the hard work and dedication they bring to their jobs, often without the security of traditional employment.
The impact of these new rules will be felt by millions of workers, bringing them a sense of security and stability they previously lacked, and allowing them to plan for their future with confidence.
