Led the WorkWhile litigation

San Francisco's city attorney closed a two-year lawsuit against gig staffing firm WorkWhile with a $2.3 million settlement announced October 20. The company must reclassify all its California workers as employees by January 1, 2027, and pay $7.2 million in restitution to workers by 2029. Add $600,000 in penalties and the case totals $7.8 million.
