The 'platform worker directive' introduces a 'presumption of employment', potentially reclassifying gig economy workers in Europe as 'employees' instead of 'self-employed'.
The directive shifts the burden of proof in employment disputes to platforms, who now have to prove no employment relationship exists.
The latest version of the directive removes detailed criteria for employment classification, relying on member states to establish their own presumption mechanisms.
The directive mandates human oversight of significant decisions affecting workers, prohibits firing based solely on algorithmic decisions, and limits processing personal data of workers.
