Sindicalistas de SVEOD recorrieron negocios que obligan a #riders a trabajar, ilegalmente entre 12:00/17:00 h, en medio de una ola de calor (+40º) cuando el Ministerio de Trabajo griego prohibió el reparto y otros trabajos al aire libre en ese horario tras presiones sindicales 👊🏻
[3/3] All the shops we passed by closed the delivery service after our visit. Colleagues will nonetheless be paid regularly for the hours they don't work, as they are legally allowed to.
Against bosses and their friend state, class self-organization is the only solution.
[1/3] Today our union members (SVEOD) paid a visit to several businesses that are forcing riders to work in the middle of a heat wave, with more than 40 degrees daily. The Ministy of Labour banned deliveries and other outside jobs from 12pm to 17pm, after pressure from unions.
[2/3] However it does not act to implement the restriction, and many businesses continue to work with impunity. This happens just a few days after a delivery worker died in Chalkida on Thursday due to hyperthermia after working all day in the sun.
@confundustria La decisione del ministero è arrivata sotto pressione dei sindacati conflittuali. È la minaccia di mobilitazioni che ha costretto il governo ad ascoltarci. Ci concedono quello che altrimenti ci prenderemmo con la forza, niente più niente meno. Organizziamoci ovunque
Die bei der @FAU_Berlin organisierten Beschäftigten von #VeloCarrier trugen am Samstag den Kampf gegen ihre Massenentlassungen zur Firmenzentrale nach Tübingen. Unterstützung gab es von Mitgliedern aus Tübingen und der @FAUStuttgart.
[3/3] Since our foundation in 2007, we are still advancing with victorious struggles, we are still fighting for our profession, for class re-organization and counterattack.
SELF-ORGANIZATION – HORIZONTALITY – ANTI-HIERARCHY
RESISTANCE – SOLIDARITY – PARTICIPATION
[1/3] On 1st of May 2023 riders in Athens (Greece) went on strike and organized a motorbike demo in the northern districts of the city. The strike was called by the Base Union Assembly for Bike and Motorbike Riders (SVEOD), a union for all workers with two-wheels vehicle.
[2/3] The demands are:
- abolition of undeclared work
- abolition of the anti-labour articles of the Chatzidaki law (4808/2021)
- permanent employee contracts for all platforms riders
- hazardous occupation insurance
- full application of the law 4611/2019
In February 2022, we filed a lawsuit against Yemeksepeti, owned by Delivery Hero, the first of its kind in Turkey, for the fraudulently self-employed delivery workers to be recognized as employees and to receive their rights arising from their employee status.

TIL: #Wolt, the food delivery business acquired by DoorDash for USD 8.1B in 2021, employs riders in Berlin through sub-contractors. About 120 Indian and Pakistani students haven't been paid wages since December.
Atina'da dünden beri Wolt binicilerinin büyük grevi sürüyor. Şirketle bir toplantı planlandığından dolayı grev Pazartesi günü sona erecek.
Her gün küçük motokurye grupları tüm mahallelerde grevi korumak için gidiyor.

"The other day in Batman, Serhat Erdem, a 15-year-old boy who had been working as a moto courier for a year, lost his life after being hit by a car.
Serhat was one of thousands of child moto couriers who are employed without a license or insurance!"
