गिग अर्थव्यवस्था


Definition from Quora:
गिग अर्थव्यवस्था का मतलब है थोड़े समय के लिए रोज़गार पर आधारित अर्थव्यवस्था। जैसे - फ़ूड डिलीवरी व अमेज़न डिलीवरी वालों की नौकरी।

Example sentence(s):
  • डिजिटलीकरण के इस दौर में रोज़गार की परिभाषा और कार्य का स्वरूप भी धीरे-धीरे बदल रहा है। एक नई वैश्विक अर्थव्यवस्था उभर रही है, जिसे ‘गिग अर्थव्यवस्था’ (Gig Economy) की संज्ञा दी जा रही है। - Knowledge Sagar  
  • एक ऐसी अर्थव्यवस्था जो फ्रीलान्स और कॉन्ट्रैक्ट आधारित नौकरियों के आधार पर विकसित हो उसे गिग अर्थव्यवस्था कहा जाता है। दूसरे शब्दों में कहें तो अनुबंध आधारित अस्थायी नौकरियाँ गिग अर्थव्यवस्था के दायरे में आती हैं। अमेरिका जैसे विकसित देशों में इस तरह का कांसेप्ट बहुत पहले से प्रचलित है। यहां बड़े-बड़े फर्म और कंपनियां अपनी जरुरत के मुताबिक़ काबिल कर्मचारियों को शॉर्ट-टर्म के लिए हायर करती हैं, और उनके काम के लिए उन्हें एक निश्चित मेहनताना दे दिया जाता है। - Dhyeya IAS  
  • वर्तमान में डिजिटलीकरण व आधुनिक इंटरनेट विश्व में गिग अर्थव्यवस्था का प्रचलन बढ़ गया है। कला के प्रदर्शन के अनुसार व्यक्ति को जो मेहनताना मिलता है उसे गिग कहते हैं। - Gyan App
