Description

On the 20th of April 2023, the National Federation of Autoentrepreneurs and Microentrepreneurs in France (FNAE) and the Association of Independent Platforms (API) have signed a method agreement defining a social agenda and granting additional resources, allocated by the platforms, to those representing platform delivery workers.

The goal of this method agreement is to safeguard the protection and compensation of representatives of independent delivery drivers so they can better assert workers rights.

The background of this collective agreement is the aim to improve the working conditions of platform workers engaged in deliveries. It has been organised by the Employment Platforms Social Relations Authority of the French government. Through this social dialogue, the FNAE, which represents over 80,000 microentrepreneurs in France and is the first union representing these workers, is brought to the negotiation table with the API, which is an organisation with platforms such as Uber Eats, Deliveroo, and Stuart as members.
