Description
The hearing was held in London over four days on 23, 24 and 25 May and 26 June 2017. Deliveroo was represented by the UK and Ireland Operations Director, by four Deliveroo riders and by one User Research Team member. The Union was represented by Mags Dewhurs (Union member and Chair of the couriers and logistics branch) and a Deliveroo Rider and IWGB member. The CAC found that Riders are not workers within the statutory definition of either s.296 TULR(C)A or s230(3)(b) Employment Rights Act 1996. Since Riders are not workers accoding to the CAC, the Union's claim for recognition and for the right to negotiate with Deliveroo on pay, hours, and holidays, was denied.
