Join the UCLA Labor Center and Los Angeles County Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO on Monday, June 29 at 7 PM PDT for our fourth episode of Labor’s Voice, a labor education series featuring the voices of workers, labor leaders, community leaders, and educators to promote inspiring ideas to advance policy change.

The COVID-19 pandemic has further exposed increasingly troublesome patterns in the “Gig Economy”. From misclassifying workers to not providing PPE, corporations have continued to exploit workers when worker protections are needed most. This episode of Labor’s Voice will feature key research, worker voices, and concrete actions to support gig economy workers during this critical time.

This event will be hosted on Facebook Live.

Moderated by Kent Wong, Director of UCLA Labor Center
