As these platforms have matured, anda growing share of their service providers (“gig workers”) depend on them fortheir main income, policy makers have been confronted with the claim that therise of the gig economy has fostered the growth of underpaid or even precariouswork.2 Consequently, more and more calls have been made to improve gigworkers’ working conditions.
