2022_12_digital_platform_workers_thumbna EUの理事会と欧州議会のサイトに、両者がプラットフォーム労働指令に合意したというニュースが報じられているので、多分間違いなくそうなったんでしょう。

Rights for platform workers: Council and Parliament strike deal

Platform work: deal on new rules on employment status

現時点では、どちらにも合意したとされる条文が載っていないので、その記事を紹介するしかありませんが、労働者性については5要件のうち2つを満たせばいいということになったようです。

The provisional agreement reached with the Parliament today addresses these cases of misclassification and eases the way for such workers to be reclassified as employees. Under the agreement, workers will belegally presumed to be employeesof a digital platform (as opposed to self-employed) if their relationship with the platform fulfils at leasttwo out of fiveindicatorsset out in the directive. These indicators include:

• upper limits on theamount of moneyworkers can receive
• supervision of theirperformance, including by electronic means
• control over the distribution orallocation of tasks
• control overworking conditionsand restrictions on choosing working hours
• restrictions on their freedom toorganisetheir work and rules on their appearance or conduct

According to the agreed text, member states may add further indicators to this list as a matter of national law.

In cases where the legal presumption applies, it will be up to the digital platform to demonstrate that no employment relationship exists according to national law and practice.

条文がアップされれば、詳細な検討を加えてみたいと思います。
