Amazon settles legal dispute with delivery drivers worth up to £140m
The Guardian
|December 19, 2024
Amazon is to settle a group claim from delivery drivers that it deprived them of thousands of pounds, the Guardian has learned, ending a suit that lawyers had said could cost it £140m.
Drivers who deliver for the internet marketplace through its "delivery service partners" (DSPs) are classed as self-employed, meaning they are not entitled to benefits such as holiday pay or minimum wage, and they do not have an employment contract.
In 2021 the law firm Leigh Day brought a claim against Amazon and its DSPs arguing that at least 3,000 drivers were entitled to an average of £10,500 in compensation for each year they had worked for the retailer.
