The case against Bolt reflects ongoing disputes in the gig economy regarding whether workers should be classified as independent contractors or entitled to worker rights, emphasizing the significant control companies exert.
Charlotte Pettman noted, 'This is one of the biggest cases of its kind in recent years,' highlighting how the outcome could set precedents for gig economy workers seeking better rights.
The litigation mirrors a previous landmark case against Uber, reinforcing ongoing pressures on gig economy companies to improve pay and working conditions for drivers attempting to obtain worker status.
