The Independent Contractor Workforce in the US

In the US there are about 28 million workers. And that's excluded from that number Alex so if we actually take a very broad overview of what is independent work including labor services, selling, leasing and that number would come close to 55 billion workers so double. So less, yeah, not the entire labor force but about 10% less than 10% actually of the independent contractor workforce are in the narrow definition of gig gig economy jobs.
