자발적 긱워커(Gig Worker)의 일에 대한 인식 탐색: 행위자 네트워크의 관점에서

초록

This study discusses the concept of extended gig workers by exploring in-depth the meaning of voluntary gig workers’ work, and provides social, economic, and institutional insights into adult education pursuing new forms of work. As a research method for this, qualitative case studies were conducted through e-mail interviews and 1:1 in-depth interviews, and the results of the study revealed that the meaning of work, life satisfaction, and network characteristics of voluntary gig workers cannot be defined by the existing definition of gig workers. In addition, their perception of what they had and the phenomenon of gig working were related to temperament, interest, and identity. The voluntary gig workers who participated in the study felt overall satisfaction with doing various things, which turned out to be a stronger bond in line with the current situation in the network to which they belong from ANT’s point of view. If the meaning of work and the concept of expanded gig workers are identified through this study, it will be possible to provide insight into the direction of adult education and the improvement of the social and economic system of the labor market in the future.
