Field experiment compares SHES's impact on technical scores and job frequency in workers, indicating improved upskilling.
Abstract This study presents the Skill-Based Hiring Enforcement System (SHES) as a new approach to upgrade workforce skilling in the gig economy. A 12-month field experiment with 300 Thai workers across three cities and two platforms—KRIB (private) and TPQI-net (public)—compared SHES with standard interfaces. SHES users received 2.5 jobs per week and achieved a 15.8% gain in technical scores (p < 0.001), versus 1.4% in the control group. By embedding incentives, feedback, and training into a hiring-driven loop, SHES transforms fragmented vocational education (VET) into a platform-based lifelong learning system enforced through motivational structures.
