Platform Work: Your Rights After the Deliveroo Ruling

Do you work for Uber, Deliveroo, or Thuisbezorgd? The Dutch Supreme Court ruled in 2023 that platform workers are employees, not self-employed contractors.

What Does This Mean for You?

  • Right to minimum wage and holiday pay
  • Protection against unfair dismissal
  • Continued payment during illness
  • Pension contributions

How Is Employment Determined?

The court examines:

  • Authority: Does the platform set rates and routes?
  • Integration: Is your work core to the platform?
  • Dependency: Can you build your own client base?

Claiming Back Pay

If you were wrongly classified as self-employed, you can claim up to 5 years of back pay, holiday allowance, and pension contributions.
