Urban Institute: Reimagining Workplace Protections: A Policy Agenda to Meet Independent Contractors’ and Temporary Workers’ Needs

Blog Categories:

We joined the Urban Institute, the Aspen Institute Future of Work Initiative for a virtual panel discussion exploring a policy agenda for stronger protections for misclassified workers, independent contractors, and temporary workers. During the event, worker advocates discussed opportunities on the ground to advance workplace equity and build worker power. We also share a new report, Reimagining Workplace Protections: A Policy Agenda to Meet Independent Contractors’ and Temporary Workers’ Needs, created by the Urban Institute, Aspen Institute, and A Better Balance. Building on ideas shared at two worker protection roundtables, the report examines how to address long-standing gaps in workplace protections through policy tied to meaningful enforcement systems.
