Karnataka launched India’s first dedicated digital grievance redressal system for gig workers, marking a major labour welfare reform initiative in the country.
Gig workers can file complaints through the Integrated Public Grievance Redressal System portal, covering wages, working conditions and disputes with digital platforms.
The mechanism aims to ensure transparency, accountability and faster resolution of grievances in the expanding gig economy sector.
Telangana became the fifth state to adopt gig worker legislation after Karnataka, Rajasthan, Bihar and Jharkhand, strengthening legal protection for platform-based workers.
