Taxi firm Uber has lost its appeal against the ruling that its contractors should be classed as workers instead of self-employed. The ruling may have a huge impact on the gig economy as many wrongly classified self-employed contractors can ask for compensation for workers’ rights they should have received.
Uber state that they will appeal to the supreme court.
