According to the Department of Social Protection and the Revenue Commissioners, the man is not a Deliveroo cyclist. He is self-employed.

Deliveroo hold no responsibility whatsoever for the worker. https://twitter.com/newschambers/status/1301115935026282497">https://twitter.com/newschamb...

The agreement made between Revenue, Social Protection and Employers to label all deliver/courier workers as self employed was made in 1998. The Revenue Commissioners claim this was done in the name of & #39;Uniformity& #39;.

There is no law to allow this, in fact, it is UNLAWFUL.

The DEASP claims that Deliveroo riders agreed to be called self-employed back in 1995, before deliveroo existed, before workers were born, according to the DEASP, delivery/courier workers are & #39;Happy& #39; to be self-employed because of a 1995 test case they know nothing about
