Why this is a really "BIG DEAL"

Consequences for non- compliance may include fines, payment of back taxes and social security, and potential criminal charges.

Additionally, platforms found to have misclassified workers might face lawsuits from affected workers seeking compensation for lost wages and benefits. 

See a few examples below:

On-demand delivery app fined for breaching labour law in Spain

In Spain, the on-demand delivery platform Glovo was fined €79 million
for misclassifying workers as self-employed.

Ride-sharing platform (Uber) ordered to pay damages in France

In France, a court ordered ride-sharing platform Uber to pay approximately €17 million in damages and lost salaries to drivers misclassified as self-employed.
