Deliveroo face MP investigation over employment practices

Deliveroo have found themselves under the cosh as of late. Last week, a union was given the green light for a high court challenge over the delivery firm’s use of self-employment contracts and now the gig economy employer’s hiring conditions are set to face scrutiny too – The Guardian reports.

Frank Field MP, Chairman of the work and pensions committee, will gather evidence over what type of conditions workers are recruited into as well as their pay and conditions at the firm.
