IAMAI Warns Karnataka Gig Worker’s Bill To Impact Ease Of Business In The State

SUMMARY

IAMAI has expressed concerns that the new law could pose challenges with regard to the ease of doing business in the state

The Karnataka government released the draft bill last month to protect the rights of gig workers in the state and provide them with social and income security

The draft of the Karnataka Platform-based Gig Workers Bill, 2024, proposes various welfare measures for gig workers and mandates that app-based delivery and ride-hailing platforms offer social security benefits

Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI) has urged the Karnataka government to stall its proposed legislation for gig workers for further consultation, expressing concerns that it could “negatively impact” the ease of doing business in the state.

“We urge the state government to put the legislative process on hold and give a sufficient period of consultation of at least 30 to 60 days,” ET reported, citing IAMAI’s submission to the government.
