About GigCV
An increasing number of professionals are gaining work experience via digital platforms. Until recently, platform workers were unable to use their valuable data – such as reviews and hours worked – elsewhere. GigCV makes it possible to securely convert that data into a digital CV at the worker's request. Reliable, clear and immediately usable for new assignments or job applications. This allows you to stay in control of your data and reputation.
For platforms, GigCV offers an opportunity to differentiate themselves: by sharing data transparently and securely, you show that you take the workers you serve seriously. This strengthens trust and makes you more attractive to new users.
GigCV is not a platform, but an independent standard with technical tools, legal agreements and knowledge about data sharing. Four leading platforms took the lead: more than 100,000 workers in six countries now have access to their data and 35,000 CVs have already been downloaded.
Fair access to data is the future. Join us and build a labour market that works for everyone.
The basics of this idea
GigCV is an initiative of independent platform expert Martijn Arets. Based on a broad exploration into the portability of reputational and work data – supported by ministries, trade unions, platforms and employment services, among others – he developed this practical solution together with experts and relevant platforms.
Platforms participating in GigCV not only deliver value to their users, but also actively contribute to independent scientific research. In this way, we jointly strengthen the position of platforms and platform workers and fuel the social debate on fair and transparent data sharing.
Information for platforms
With the GigCV API and accompanying legal documentation, we make it easy for platform companies to share reputation and transaction data at the user's request. By offering workers the option to download their data for free as a digital (PDF) CV with a single click, you strengthen your value proposition to platform workers: you offer transparency, trust, and recognition for work. At the same time, you anticipate (future) regulations surrounding data sharing and portability. By joining GigCV, you show what your platform stands for: facilitating, supporting and strengthening the position of workers.
