Or... we could just designate gig workers as employees when their employers take too many liberties with the job. In Morocco, there's no Uber or Lyft. The apps there have two things in common: 1. They have a wink-wink-nudge-judge character to them - taxi drivers get violent when these apps cut into their earnings. 2. Because of the above, the app is structured like an auction house. When you pay the driver, you do it in cash. The stuff that Uber/Lyft do that makes their drivers not traditional contractors simply doesn't fly when the app itself is kind of illegal. There's no penalty for rejecting rides, there's no irritation when the ride brokers take a >50% fee.
