Honest comparison

MyGig vs HeroForce

HeroForce is Employment Hero's "Shared Employment Infrastructure": they become the legal employer of your existing or new workforce, domestically and globally, while you keep operational control. It is built for workforce transitions and ongoing headcount. MyGig solves a different job: filling casual shifts, tomorrow morning, with vetted workers we employ, vet, and pay daily under labour hire licensing. If your problem is "move 50 salaried staff onto an EOR", look at them. If it is "I need 12 reliable pickers on Thursday", that is us.
