On 9 December 2021, the European Commission published a set of measures to improve the working conditions in platform work and to support the sustainable growth of digital labour mobility. Within this package, a public consultation on “draft Guidelines on the application of EU competition law to collective agreements regarding the working conditions of solo self-employed persons” was also released.
Ceemet does not agree that competition rules are changed in order to allow genuine self-employed to bargain their fees and other trading conditions, as these would go against competition law.
