Women working for apps like Uber and Doordash often ’brush off’ harassment
Q&As Alex Walls Gig industry platforms such as Uber, Doordash, and TaskRabbit fail to acknowledge the realities of women workers' experiences, putting women at financial and personal risk, finds a new study. Researchers interviewed 20 women gig workers in Canada and the U.S. and found that women-who make up approximately half the gig workforce in Canada-often have to 'brush off' harassment for fear of losing work, and available safety tools aren't very effective.
