概要

 Gig work is becoming more common in Scotland, yet issues of low pay and unsafe working environment get little attention from policymakers. Ahead of the Holyrood Election on the 7th of May 2026, delivery workers from Edinburgh collective ROOM launched 5 policies to transform gig work in Scotland. In this series, we explore how the policies might be widely applied, focusing on the perspectives of migrant workers, who constitute the majority of this growing workforce. We bring together delivery riders, people from academia and grassroots organisers to discuss the best way to implement these demands, whilst offering a reality check from those who work on the frontline.Copyright 2026 David Howard 政治・政府 政治学

    Platform-based workers face significant risks on the job, including high rates of equipment theft, road accidents, and assaults. For many, a stolen bike or an injury means losing their main source of income for days or weeks. How can local authorities and the Scottish Government support gig workers in such precarious conditions?

  • Workers Consulted on City Infrastructure

    Workers Consulted on City Infrastructure
    2026/04/24

    When national and local governments consult on decisions that affect gig workers’ conditions, from cycle lanes to street planning, workers should be consulted. Without input, they lack a voice on decisions affecting their safety. Why does cycling infrastructure often fall short, and how do we improve the process?
