Jitjatjo Provides “Benefits Safety Net” To The Growing Pool Of Gig Workers Nationwide 

New York, NY—Jitjatjo, a talent marketplace platform for frontline workforces, has created the Better by Jitjatjo program to bring wellness and other health benefits to the gig economy. 57 million households in America are currently uninsured, and many employers do not extend benefits to part-time employees and gig workers. Because of this, they end up paying top dollar for benefits. 

With 20 million Gen Zers expected to enter the workforce in the coming years and nearly the same amount of Baby Boomers making their exit during this time, the trend of flexible work is forecasted to increase year over year. The economy is also seeing an almost 50% shift from full-time to flex working scenarios across most major industries. 

As an added benefit of finding gig-work through Jitjatjo’s Flex app, the company is seeking to solve this “lack of benefits” disparity for gig workers, starting with their own talent pool, with its Better by Jitjatjo program, which will provide a number of health, wellness, and lifestyle services to their employees. The program launched to Flex users on March 3rd with partners United Healthcare, Working Advantage and Avibra, the leading providers of personal well-being, lifestyle, and protection solutions. 

“From day one, our plan was to create a platform that provides financial and career opportunities, improves people’s wellbeing, and helps our community to be better. We put community first, and our goal is to provide tools and essential benefits to help everyday Americans reach their goals,” says Tim Chatfield, CEO & Co-Founder. “Jitjatjo is dedicated to our human betterment mission, and commitment to our vision to transform the way people work.”

Jitjatjo plans to expand the benefit program offered to their talent pool and continue to lead the market with a better flexible work experience for everyone.
