El juez sienta en el banquillo a Oscar Pierre, cofundador de Glovo, por mantener a falsos autónomos
El magistrado cree que las decisiones del consejero delegado de la compañía “menoscaban y suprimen los derechos” de los repartidores
A judge in Barcelona has decided to place Oscar Pierre, co-founder of Glovo, in the dock to face trial for allegedly exploiting false self-employed workers. Judge Luis Martínez Durán believes there is sufficient evidence to open an oral trial against Pierre for crimes against workers' rights. The judge states that Pierre's decisions "undermine and suppress" the rights of Glovo's delivery workers, as the company kept them as fake self-employed workers despite legal rulings that required them to be treated as employees.
Judge Martínez Durán refuses to dismiss the case as Pierre's defense requested and urges both the prosecution and the CGT union (acting as a private prosecutor for two delivery workers) to submit their accusation documents so Pierre can be brought to trial after more than two years of investigation. The offense Pierre faces carries a sentence of between six months and six years in prison.
