The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court is set to hear challenges to ballot measures that could impact gig workers in the state. The court will review the constitutionality of the proposed measures, which aim to classify gig workers as independent contractors rather than employees.
One of the key issues at stake is the classification of gig workers and the implications it has on their rights and benefits. If the measures are approved, gig workers could potentially lose access to certain protections and benefits that are typically afforded to employees.
