Gigin, India’s leading tech platform connecting informal workers to employers, has released data revealing a remarkable surge in female participation within the gig workforce. The report sheds light on key trends, challenges, and opportunities for women in this dynamic sector. 

Recent data shows that female participation in the gig economy has increased by a staggering 100 times compared to previous years. This surge signifies a seismic shift in how women engage with work opportunities, especially in urban centers.

Key Highlights

The major urban centers Bangalore, Mumbai, and Delhi, account for 75% of the overall growth in female gig workers. Their vibrant ecosystems, coupled with increased digital connectivity, have fueled this remarkable rise.

Women strategically utilize gig opportunities during festival seasons. Applications spike by up to 50% during these periods, indicating a smart utilization of flexible work arrangements to supplement incomes.

Income Boost and Return Rates

Female gig workers have witnessed an average income boost of 30%. This substantial increase contributes significantly to economic stability and financial empowerment.

Remarkably, 60% of female gig workers return to the platform for new opportunities within just three months. This high return rate underscores the positive impact of gig work on their lives.

Giging’s Perspective

Gigin reported, “Because more than 450 million people are employed in the informal sector, this segment seeks attention and infrastructural support. At Gigin, our goal is to provide these workers with a platform so that they can avail opportunities with confidence.”

Gigin’s success in attracting and retaining female gig workers demonstrates that when hurdles are removed and equal opportunities provided, women shine in the gig economy. The platform’s commitment to empowering this segment is evident in these remarkable numbers.
