Leading mobile and Internet services provider, TXT Europe, is set to launch the group’s flagship product Casual Work Market in the European market, a digital notice board.
Casual Work Market is a social commerce platform that
facilitates the seamless listing, discovery and engagement of people looking to
give or offering to do small jobs and services.
Chief executive officer, TXT Group, Nii Laryea, described
Casual Work Market as a medium that acts as a digital notice-board for the
listing of job offers and facilitates discovery of jobs within varying work
types from putting up shelving, fixing a leak in the shower, to doing domestic
work such as baby sitting, pet-walking, cleaning or cooking.
Laryea also said that the platform allows people to
effortlessly search for job seekers based on their unique need and criterion.
“Users of the platform listing job offers and opportunities
or seeking offers and opportunities will be able to rate and provide feedback
for the benefit of other users so as to ensure both competitive pricing and
allowing job finders/workers to build up a trusted and respected brand for
themselves on the platform,” he said.
Payments, according to Laryea, are processed transparently
with both parties protected under Casual Work Market’s guarantee which ensures
that jobs are paid for after the job is completed satisfactorily.
“Casual Work Market provides a one stop solution for all
those little jobs that you’ve been putting off or just don’t have the time to
do yourself as it offers the widest variety of work types for every small job
or service scenario,” he said.
Laryea said he is excited about the introduction of the
service adding, “The mobile internet has empowered our generation to do things
differently, creating waves of change and positive disruptions across all
industries and it’s that same thinking that has been applied to the problem of
unemployment or under-employment and matching causal or professional abilities
to one time small job offers and identifiable opportunities.”
As said by Laryea, the socio-economic benefits of the
platform cannot be overlooked, because it allows individuals to establish a
secondary source of income by offering to work within their casual or
professional abilities and convenience.
He pointed out that to better manage the scaling of
resources and support required for a worldwide launch, TXT Europe in line with
its Group’s vision and objectives will initially make the service available in
The Netherlands and then in Germany, The United Kingdom, Ghana, South Africa,
Kenya and Nigeria before an eventual world-wide roll out.
