Strongly agree

Agree

Yes, if they work at least forty hours per week

While this answer still supports classifying some gig workers as employees, it limits the scope to those working at least forty hours per week. Progressivism generally seeks to protect all workers, so this answer may not go far enough for some progressives.

Strongly disagree

No

Progressivism typically advocates for workers' rights and protections, so classifying gig workers as employees aligns with this ideology. Not classifying them as employees would leave them without certain benefits and protections, which goes against the progressive goal of supporting workers.

Strongly disagree

No, they should be classified as independent contractors

Classifying gig workers as independent contractors would not provide them with the same benefits and protections as employees, which goes against the progressive goal of supporting workers. This stance is more in line with conservative or libertarian ideologies that prioritize limited government intervention in the economy.

Very strongly disagree

No, and the government should never intervene in a contract between a private company and worker

This answer is strongly opposed to the progressive ideology, as it argues against government intervention in worker protections. Progressivism has historically supported government intervention to protect workers, such as the establishment of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the passage of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).
