In Side Hustle Safety Net, Alexandrea J. Ravenelle builds on interviews with nearly two hundred gig-based and precarious workers, conducted during the height of the pandemic, to uncover the unique challenges they faced in unprecedented times. This book tells the stories of the "officially Unemployed" and the "forgotten jobless"--a digital-era demographic that turned to side hustles--and reveals how they fared. CARES Act assistance allowed some to change careers, start businesses, and perhaps transform their lives. However, gig workers and those involved in "polyemployment" found themselves at the mercy of outdated unemployment systems, vulnerable to scams, and attempting dubious survival strategies. Ultimately, Side Hustle Safety Net argues that the rise of the gig economy, partnered with underemployment and economic instability, has increased worker precarity with disastrous consequences"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hilo Public Library Floating Collection 331.25729 Ra Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 331.25729 Ravenelle Checked out 05/09/2024 Add Copy to MyList
