Mental Health and The Gig Economy | Online

About this event

Many of us at some point in our careers have been persuaded towards freelancing. However most of us don’t consider the negatives that come with that freedom and flexibility.

Despite the fact that multiple studies show that flexibility is good for one's health. Many freelancers are paying the hidden cost that comes with being a member of the gig economy.

How are freelancers meant to beat the slump?

Join us for a discussion as we dive into the issues around mental health in the gig economy. Along with sharing tips and insight into how to set healthy boundaries when it comes to gig work?
