Scott W. Absher, ShiftPixy Founder & CEO said: "As technology has advanced over the past decade, new internet-based employment platforms emerged which are often referred to collectively as the "Gig Economy." Many of these platforms, such as Uber (transportation) and Instacart (grocery delivery) regularly engage "contract workers" rather than "employees" for jobs (gigs). Among other reasons, his classification allows companies Uber to operate with 20% to 30% less in labor costs than competition having employees, leading to eye-popping numbers like Uber's $40 billion valuation or Instacart's latest $220 million round of funding. Many fear that loss of the gig workforce structure, either by a wave of class-action lawsuits, intervention by regulators, or through the collective action of disgruntled workers, and the gig economy may be in serious jeopardy.
