The Labor Reform and gig economy in Colombia - advances and pendings
We will talk about the Colombian Government's labor reform sent to the Congress in March 2023, specifically the section related to platforms workers' rights. The delivery workers were heard during the bill elaboration, but the platform companies have already presented other proposals criticizing the Government’s one. We will learn about Fair Work Colombia policy brief about this Reform's aspect - some articles in the proposal offer clearer and more transparent terms and conditions, but the bill focuses on a very specific type of platform or digital work, the food delivery, and it misses an opportunity to protect the diversity of the digital work and their workers.
- Oscar Maldonado is the Fair Work Colombia's principal investigator and associate professor at the Universidad del Rosario.
- Derly Sánchez is associate researcher at Fair Work Colombia and Universidad del Rosario.
