PRIVATE ride hire giant Addison Lee is attempting to reopen a workers’ rights employment tribunal case — despite having already lost it — the GMB union said today.
At a hearing today, solicitors Leigh Day, acting on behalf of 500 claimants, including many GMB members, called for the request to be thrown out.
The original case, brought by the union, saw an employment tribunal in 2017 and an appeal tribunal the following year reject the London-based firm’s arguments that their drivers are self-employed contractors, rather than directly employed employees.
