That is the general condition. It is possible that e.g. FLSA was passed due to the political calculations of the capitalist class, but it did happen. Incidentally, the "Gig Economy" has all the necessary features to serve as the Corporate Neoliberal version of pseudo-Communist China's Social Credit System. Possibly that may serve as motivation to address GP's excellent point regarding a new class of workers and the necessity to craft new laws.
