    We begin by examining how the gig economy is defined in terms of the relationships between employer, employee, and consumer, and we then examine how the gig economy is defined legally. We also explore how gig work classification has evolved over time through various court rulings. We will then determine the areas where court precedents have still fallen short in the coverage of worker protections offered to other employee statuses but not to gig workers. Finally, we will propose alternative solutions to gig worker classification that would increase worker benefits among other protections.
