Abstract
The present study was conducted with the aim of developing a model of the gig economy: A step towards human resource governance. The statistical population of the study consists of managers from government organizations and university professors specializing in the fields of digital economy, labor market, and human resource governance, who were selected based on the principle of theoretical sufficiency and a purposive sampling method, comprising 15 individuals. Research data were collected through semi-structured interviews. For qualitative data analysis, a thematic analysis approach was used based on the six-step framework of Brown and Clark (2006). Also, MAXQDA software was used to manage and organize the data, which facilitated the coding, categorization, and final analysis of the themes. To strengthen the validity of the results, participant review was used; in this way, the researcher's perception of the interviews was sent to the interviewees and their approval was obtained. Also, peer review was used to match the codes and themes. The findings indicate that in the developed model, the enablers, key factors, challenges, and opportunities of the gig economy were identified. Also, the consequences of this gig economy phenomenon and its impact on the human resources governance system were determined.
