Frontline Staff

Frontline Gig is proud to announce that we are the technology provider for a new DOEE-funded project in the District of Columbia, piloting green jobs performed as gigs. We are using the Frontline Gig mobile app to connect workers to litter pick up and weeding gigs - lasting 2 to 4 hours at a time, ensuring Oxon Run Park in Ward 8 maintains its clean, green aesthetic while creating job opportunities for local residents.

Frontline transforms traditional 8-hour jobs like litter removal into new, flexible shift-work opportunities that non-traditional blue-collar workers like university students and office workers can support in their spare time. We worked with the leadership team in the City of Norfolk Parks department to identify two of the most visited and perpetually messy parks. From August to October 2021, gig workers were dispatched several times per week to collect loose litter and change out bins that were more than half full. The result was a dramatic transformation in park cleanliness and a reduction in the total trash collected over time.
