美國康涅狄格州斯坦福德，2021年10月25日/PRNewswire/ - Point Pickup Technologies，企業級最後一英裏的履行和配送提供商，將客戶控製權交還給零售商，今天宣布將推出GigPoint，這是一個獨一無二的平台，旨在幫助不斷擴大的零工網絡更好地管理他們工作和生活的關鍵方麵，提供基於工作的獎勵和銀行和保險等重要服務。未來的GigPoint迭代將引入新的工作支持福利以及更強大的社區建設工具。最初的GigPoint版本僅供受邀者參加的焦點小組使用，今天已經發布，最終將通過Point Pickup彈性員工應用程序或可下載的獨立應用程序向所有彈性員工開放，包括購物者和司機。推出時提供的三項服務是獎勵、銀行和保險。通過“點取”成功完成訂單，靈活員工將獲得積分，然後他們可以用積分換取現金獎金、假期、服務和產品折扣以及其他福利。通過PointTrust(與薩頓銀行合作，聯邦存款保險公司會員)，靈活的員工可以有效地管理他們的財務，而不用擔心透支或每月的費用。他們還可以通過GigPoint購買多種負擔得起的保險套餐，包括健康、牙科和視力福利。“從第一天開始，我們的彈性員工就一直是我們公司的心跳。但我們已經認識到，零工經濟正變得過於破碎，無法長期持續，為我們的員工提供更好的醫療福利比以往任何時候都更有必要，”Point Pickup首席執行官湯姆·菲奧裏塔(Tom Fiorita)說。“GigPoint的第一階段將幫助我們超過35萬名Flex員工建立更成功的企業，這將轉化為更快樂、更充實的生活。 We are looking toward the future of the gig economy by not accepting the status quo and building a care economy in its place." The initial features provided by GigPoint are linked to an internal retention and job motivation study conducted by Point Pickup to identify top work-benefit priorities for its flex workers. An easy-to-use loyalty program with instant access to rewards was rated as the number one request. The latest research note published by Barclays US Internet and North American Transportation senior analysts Ross Sandler and Brandon Oglenski, "Gig Last Mile Delivery vs. AMZN – The Next Battleground? ", indicates that the size of the gig economy workforce is likely to more than double by 2025, from approximately 7 million to over 14 million1. In addition, these same gig workers are estimated to be over half of delivery personnel by 2025, with same-day delivery expected to take 16% of the US package market. However, addressing the needs of the growing gig workforce will be paramount to meeting the potential for the last-mile industry. After the beta program is completed, the first release will launch to Point Pickup's flex workers later this fall. Future iterations will expand to the general gig ecosystem, with the intent of building a more open and transparent gig environment, as well as implementing additional features.
