Synopsis
The Supreme Court ruled that a group of Uber drivers who brought legal action against the ride-hailing app in 2016 are to be classed as workers, and not self-employed. What does this mean for Uber and the gig economy? And how have the self-employed fared during COVID-19? On this edition of the Sky News Daily podcast, host Dermot Murnaghan is joined by Sky’s technology correspondent Rowland Manthorpe and employment solicitor Aleksandra Flack to assess the future of the gig economy.Daily podcast team:Podcast producer - Annie JoycePodcast producer - Nicola EyersPodcast producer - Lauren PinkneyInterviews producer - Tatiana AldersonArchive - Simon WindsorArchive - Rob FellowesArchive - Nelly StefanovaMusic - Steven Wheeler
