We can have fair working conditions, without abolishing solo self-employment! #platformwork
The @fdp supports fair working conditions for #platformworkers & clearly opposes any kind of exploitation. /1

However, the parliamentary text of the S&D rapporteur on the #PlatformWorkersDirective overshoots the mark by far. Instead of combating bogus self-employment in a targeted manner, the law would de facto lead to the extensive abolition of solo self-employment. /2

In fact, all people who work via digital labour platforms would be forced into an employment relationship.
This is a red line for the @fdpineuropa, because we want to strengthen the self-employed instead of taking away their basis for work. /3

In addition, the proposed parliamentary position contains numerous problem areas, some of which are incompatible with national labour law, such as the restriction of the freedom of collective bargaining./4

I welcome the fact that the @fdp & @fdpbt are also working towards improvements to the directive within the German traffic light coalition before Germany can approve the law in the Council. /5
