Statement from the Efling board regarding Wolt couriers
The Board of Efling expresses its solidarity with the couriers at Wolt who demonstrated great courage through protest actions this week in response to poor working conditions. Work performed by couriers at Wolt and similar companies constitutes wage labor. Consequently, wages and rights must align with standards set by Icelandic collective agreements. Efling condemns the practice of denying workers minimum standards and instead subjecting them to conditions of fake self-employment.
Recently, Efling has been in contact with Wolt couriers in Iceland who have reached out to the union. The union has also gathered information on the struggles of trade unions and couriers with delivery companies in the Nordic region, including in Norway and Finland. Efling is prepared to support Wolt couriers in Iceland in their fight for improved conditions and intends to advocate for the recognition of their status as employees.
Wolt couriers are welcome to contact the union by sending an email to efling@efling.is.
