- The Karnataka Cabinet cleared the much-awaited Karnataka Platform-based Gig Workers (Social Security and Welfare) Bill, 2024.
- It is now expected to be introduced as an Ordinance.
- If passed, this would make Karnataka the second State in the country to introduce the legislation for the welfare of platform-based gig workers after the state of Rajasthan.
- Although the Central government, in 2020, passed the Code on Social Security (CoSS) which defined the gig workers for the first time in India, it is yet to be implemented.
- In 2023, Rajasthan state has enacted the Rajasthan Platform-Based Gig Workers (Registration and Welfare) Act, 2023.
- Telangana is also in the process to enact gig workers Act.
