It examines the issue of gig workers and implementation gaps in existing frameworks and highlights the vulnerabilities of migrant workers. The study uses thematic analysis to explore aspects such as working conditions, workers' legal awareness, algorithmic management, and gender inclusion in the workforce. Findings reveal regional disparities in working conditions, discrepancies between legal recognition and practical enforcement, and persistent gender- based inequalities. The research underscores the need for tailored, collaborative efforts among various stakeholders to improve the situation of gig workers. This study aims to enhance the understanding of regulatory issues in the quick commerce sector and offers valuable insights for policymakers, platforms, and researchers to improve working conditions and ensure fair treatment for gig workers in India. 2025, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
