“As many grocery store workers and gig economy shoppers work without protection as demand for groceries soars from millions of Americans staying home, we speak with a personal shopper who worked for the delivery app Instacart. Instacart workers went on strike in late March to demand the company implement appropriate safety measures and give them hazard pay. Matthew Telles is a member of the Gig Workers Collective, which organized the strike.”
