Food delivery riders are entitled
to the safeguards afforded by all subordinate work, the supreme
Court of Cassation said Friday, rejecting an appeal by Foodinho
in a dispute between Foodora and five Turin riders.
The case has become a test case for gig-economy workers.
The high court said the riders were entitled to protections
under the Jobs Act, some of whose provisions have been scrapped.
Delivery service riders have protested against working
conditions in several countries.
