The gig economy has fragmented working arrangements in Australia and globally, disrupting how, where and on what terms work is performed. This study will systematically interrogate the consequences for work and workers in Australia of the growth and diversification of gig work. It will use a labour geography approach to explain how workers navigate working in the gig economy in the context of their wider lives. This will extend existing research by grounding analysis in the lived experience of workers both across various segments of the gig economy and over time. The project will extend academic theory and provide guidance to policymakers as to how to harness the benefits of gig work while mitigating potential harm.

零工经济使澳大利亚和全球的工作安排支离破碎，扰乱了工作的方式、地点和条件。这项研究将系统地探讨零工工作的增长和多样化对澳大利亚工作和工人的影响。它将使用劳动力地理学方法来解释工人如何在更广泛的生活背景下在零工经济中工作。这将通过对零工经济各个领域和一段时间内工人的生活经历进行基础分析来扩展现有的研究。该项目将扩展学术理论，并为政策制定者提供有关如何利用零工工作的好处同时减轻潜在危害的指导。
