December 9 – A Policy Agenda to Meet the Needs of Independent and Temporary Workers
Join the Urban Institute, the Aspen Institute Future of Work Initiative, and A Better Balance 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 will discuss opportunities on the ground to advance workplace equity and build worker power. Organizers will also share a new report, Reimagining Workplace Protections: A Policy Agenda to Meet the Needs of Independent and Temporary Workers, 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. The event will take place on Wednesday, December 9 at 2 p.m. EST. Click here to register.
