Change the law to give employment rights to gig economy workers

Petition Details

We need a new law to classify anyone, in any sector, working full-time hours for one company as an employee rather than self employed. These workers are fully reliant on these jobs for their income and should have all the basic employment entitlements, including re pay and holiday pay.

Additional Information

A similar law was passed in California. See
