The gig economy market is a crucial platform that provides employment services to flexible workers and employers. As shown in the picture, on a certain date, employment service personnel at the "Gig Workers' Station" in the Wanda Plaza, Tongzhou District, Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, were introducing employment and entrepreneurship policies to job seekers.

Strengthen employment priority and focus on building an employment-friendly development model. Implementing an employment-first strategy is an inevitable requirement to consolidate the ruling foundation of our Party, an important support for promoting high-quality economic development, and a fundamental measure to ensure and improve people's livelihoods.

Highlight key groups and focus on improving employment support policies. Promoting high-quality and full employment ultimately manifests in the employment of specific groups. If key groups are stable, the overall employment situation is stable. Emphasize supporting the employment of college graduates and other young people by encouraging growth and talent development, expanding market-oriented and social employment channels, improving policies on wages, professional titles, training, and further education, encouraging young people to engage in key sectors, industries, urban and rural grassroots areas, and small and medium-sized enterprises, and providing enhanced support for graduates from disadvantaged families and long-term unemployed youth to facilitate early employment and social integration.

To improve labor rights protection mechanisms, it is essential to enhance consultation and coordination in labor relations, dispute resolution, administrative guidance, and supervision enforcement.
