The emergence and large-scale spread of the post-industrial, information-network type of society is accompanied by the formation of a new digital economic structure, which determines the development and mass introduction of new forms of labor. In the context of the acute economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the GIG Economy today occupies the position of hegemon in the global labor market. The article considers the phenomenon of GIG Economy, describes the main components of GIG Economy, and presents the prospects for the development of labor markets in the context of their transformation against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic.
