Minimum wages, job security and better conditions could be coming for millions of Australian workers in the so-called "gig economy".
The federal government is consulting on new laws to boost work security for millions of Australian workers, while new platforms offering better conditions, and a labour shortage, are making it harder for apps to attract people to do the work.
"We basically just let it rip," says Giuseppe Carabetta, associate professor of employment law with the UTS Business School, about the explosive growth of the gig employment model.
