Resumen:
As a result of the quarantine imposed in March 2020, the essential labor performed by workers of digital delivery platforms implied the renewed visibility of their precarious labor conditions. In order to protect them, seven draft bills were introduced to the Congress, oscillating in-between the salaried/independent classification of these workers. Specifically, the paper analyzes the treatment of three dimensions that tend to be at the center of workers' own concerns when it comes to the regulation of the activity: the preservation of flexible schedules, the continuity of income self-regulation -even though this often means overworking- and the need to gain effective access to social protections -where the absence of occupational hazards insurance stands out.
