I recently read an article about how many delivery workers during COVID were actually undocumented immigrants who would "rent" delivery accounts from others. This made me wonder - has COVID permanently changed who participates in gig work, especially among immigrant communities? Do you think the huge spike in delivery demand during lockdowns created lasting changes in how many immigrants see gig work as a viable option, even now that restrictions have lifted?
