New Delhi: Rising fuel and vehicle operating costs are making India’s gig workers more selective about the jobs they take, with many opting for roles that offer predictable earnings or lower running costs.
This is prompting employers to expand incentives, EV-linked opportunities and fixed-pay jobs to attract and retain delivery workers, recruitment experts said.
The available talent pool for delivery-based gig roles has contracted by 5-10% over the past four months, said Deepesh Gupta, head of business, general staffing, at Adecco India.
