Precarious employment refers to work characterized by insecurity, low pay, and limited protections, often lacking benefits and job stability. It includes non-standard employment arrangements such as temporary, part-time, or freelance jobs, where workers face uncertainty regarding their employment status and income.

To measure precarious employment, researchers typically utilize various indicators, including:

Job security assessments: Evaluating the stability of employment contracts.

Income analysis: Comparing wages against living costs and minimum wage standards.

Access to benefits: Assessing availability of health insurance, retirement plans, and paid leave.

Working conditions: Examining safety, training, and support in the workplace.

These metrics help identify the prevalence and impact of precarious employment on workers' lives.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
