L📂Platforms
L ℹ️ Increased legal certainty, reduced litigation costs, business planning facilitation.
We want to:
🔸 increase transparency in the use of algorithms by the platforms
🔸 ensure human monitoring on respect of working conditions
🔸 give the right to contest automated decisions.
Technological progress must be fair and inclusive.
We will bring also more transparency around platforms operating across the EU by:
🔹 clarifying existing obligations to declare work.
🔹 asking platforms to make key information about their activities and the people who work through them available to national authorities.
Out of the 28 million people working through platforms in the 🇪🇺, 5.5 million may be currently misclassified.
The new rights will be granted to both workers & genuine self-employed.
We aim to make the most of the digital transformation and protect the 🇪🇺 social market economy.
