The gig economy isn’t just about the shift from being an employee to a worker (or possibly self-employed), but also a complete change of business model.
Deliveroo, the food delivery company, is one such business that is fully immersed in the gig economy and sets itself apart as a different type of business that prides itself on being agile, flexible, diverse, data-driven and attractive to a millennial workforce.
Sola Osinoiki, Global People Operations Lead at Deliveroo, highlights HR has also had to adapt to this new business model and instead of offering traditional benefits is offering more versatile benefits that appeal to a workforce that is interested in their health and wellbeing.
