In the tumultuous world of the gig economy, gig workers are currently standing at a crossroads. The gig worker’s battle is heating up, and it’s not just any battle – it’s a war for their livelihoods. Recent developments in labor regulations and classifications are causing seismic shifts, threatening the very essence of what it means to be a gig worker in the United States.
With the U.S. Department of Labor considering the reclassification of SSN-based 1099 contractors as W2 employees, we find ourselves at a pivotal juncture with far-reaching implications for the gig economy and its worldwide influence. An astonishing 36% of the U.S. workforce comprises gig workers, and the ramifications of such a reclassification could be nothing less than disastrous.
Even if every qualified professional in the United States were to unite magically to aid contractors in forming business entities like LLCs, there wouldn’t be sufficient time to assist the millions who would be impacted.
It is of utmost importance that we disseminate this information and endeavor to protect the livelihoods of those who depend on the flexibility and opportunities offered by the gig economy.

The War on Gig Workers
Picture this: you’ve embraced the gig economy, reveling in the freedom, flexibility, and opportunity it offers. You’re your own boss, steering your career path as an independent contractor or sole proprietor. But suddenly, the landscape is shifting. The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is contemplating a rule change that could turn your world upside down.
The rule was sent to the White House Office of Management and Budget for review last Thursday, the last step before its publication in the Federal Register.
This proposed rule, once it comes into effect, might reclassify gig workers as W-2 employees instead of independent contractors. You might think, “Why does this matter?” It matters a great deal because it directly impacts your income, benefits, and legal protections under federal law.
