When GMB and Deliveroo announced an agreement covering all 100,000 of the company’s self-employed drivers and riders, it was a bit of a “Shock and Awe” moment. Is this a fantastic feat of negotiation or, as the IWGB union put it “a cynical PR exercise”? In this special episode Deliveroo’s Joe Carberry and GMB’s Mick Rix discuss with Simon how the deal came to be, what it covers (and what it doesn’t), and why both believe the deal could be a blueprint for the modern world of work.
