A national association built by workers, for workers.

We represent millions of gig workers, platform workers, delivery riders, ride-hailing drivers, freelancers, and home-based women workers who currently work outside the reach of traditional labour law. Our advocacy pushes for inclusive legislation, social security coverage, safe working conditions, fair wages, and effective dispute resolution.

We are not a legal firm. We do not take on individual court cases. What we do is collect the shared experience of platform, gig and home-based workers — riders and drivers deactivated without notice, women paid piece-rates below what any wage law would allow, freelancers left unpaid by clients they can never reach — and turn that experience into a public case for change.

PGHWA is registered as an association of workers, not a service company. Our members are the people we advocate for. Our executive committee is elected from within the workforce. Our funding is transparent, and we accept no support that would compromise the independence of the workers' voice.

What we stand for

• Recognition. Platform, gig and home-based work is real work — and deserves to be counted, protected and respected.
• Protection. No worker should be one accident, one deactivation, or one bad month away from losing everything.
• Voice. The people doing the work must be at the table when the rules for that work are written.
• Dignity. A rider is not a package delivered to your door. A woman stitching from home is not invisible labour. Every worker is a person first.
