Many people choose to be gig workers because it gives them flexibility to work around their own schedules. Some gig workers, such as students or housewives, are part time and only work 10-20 hours a week. Other gig workers work a combined 40 hours a week with multiple companies. Should companies provide equal benefits to part time gig workers with 10 hours a week compared to full time workers? Which company should provide and pay for healthcare or unemployment benefits for someone who works 10 hours a week for multiple companies? If a company hires a worker for a small project for a period of just a few days, should that company be responsible for paying for unemployment benefits if that person can't find additional work afterwards?
