The Collective Bargaining Contract With 3F
Keeping in mind the conditions prevailing for self-employed workers associated with the Danish digital platforms, Hilfr decided in 2018 to offer benefits to its self-employed workers registered on its platform. This would motivate them and in turn lead to a better customer experience for its customers. The company undertook a collective agreement with 3F, the Danish affiliate of Public Services International, the global trade union federation..
What next?
The Hilfr-3F collective bargaining agreement (CBA) was the first such experiment in the EU. Since then few other companies have entered into such CBAs in the last couple of years. However, the majority of the CBAs were at the enterprise level with individual platform companies, an indication that most platform companies are not members of national employers’ organizations or other sectoral organizations..
