Figures by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.upwork.com\/i\/freelancing-in-america\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \u201cFreelancing in America: 2019\u201d<\/a> show an increase in the percentage of those who freelance full time from 17% in 2014 to 28% in 2019. Additionally, advances in enterprise software and telecommunications services allow for easy <strong>communication and collaboration<\/strong>. Some businesses, like Uber and Lyft, for example, have even made the<strong> gig economy<\/strong> the backbone of their business models by hiring individual contractors to provide services, such as picking up people, delivering food, etc. A Morgan Stanley study found that 35% of US employees, or roughly 55 million people, are <strong>engaging in freelance gigs<\/strong> to some extent. The same study also expects this number to reach up to 50% by 2027. The <strong>gig economy<\/strong> also represents a big portion of the U.S. GDP, representing nearly $1 trillion of income, making it more profitable than some major industries, like transportation and construction.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36515d8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"36515d8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHowever, this growth has not been matched with adequate laws and regulations that can protect workers in general, and especially during a crisis, and despite the advantages that freelancing brings, such as freedom,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/remote-working-and-how-a-digital-workplace-is-making-it-possible\/\"> working remotely<\/a> and the luxury to handpick gigs, freelancers and self-employed individuals don\u2019t have the same rights and privileges as their full-time counterparts. With no health insurance coverage, no retirement plans or a host of other benefits that full-time workers may receive, it can be hard for freelancers to cope during a crisis.
