Hundreds of thousands of workers are no longer working standard office hours in a corporate setting, but instead work freelance and gig jobs that allow for greater flexibility in hours, job type, and location. Is the future of the American labor market in gig work, and how are workers faring in the new, gig economy?
Brent talks to Sarah Kessler, a senior editor at OneZero and author of “Gigged: The End of the Job and the Future of Work” on some of the challenges and opportunities of these new flexible workplaces. They discuss the role of the safety net keeping these workers secure, job stability, and opportunity.
