WorkPilots

Work Pilots helps people wanting to work to find steps towards their dream job - one gig at a time! We also help organisations to find easy and low threshold opportunities to get help to e.g. seasonal or on-demand tasks. With our "mobile first" multichannel service (iOS, Android and web) workers will be able to find gigs easier than ever and gain valuable work experience. Background: Youth unemployment is one of the biggest problems facing society today. Ignoring this issue will result in a lost generation and massive cost to global economies through unemployment benefits, missed out tax revenue and social unrest. Young people of all backgrounds are being starved of the opportunity of getting into the workplace to prove their skills and participate in the economy. In the Spring of 2016, WorkPilots launched mobile first iOS, Android and Web versions of an on-demand job matching service in Finland. This service has revolutionized the way young people find temporary work and gain work-experience, using a few clicks on their smartphones. In about three years, over 30,000 users in Finland had registered, 25 municipalities and almost 200 NGO's have also joined. Our PPPP (Public-Private-People-Partnership) models have enabled many partners to work together towards shared vision of creating low threshold paths to worklife - one gig at a time!
