Case Review – Important WRC decision on employment status

The repercussions of the Supreme Court decision in the Karshan case, which found a number of a Domino’s franchise’s delivery drivers were employees rather than independent contractors, continue to be felt.  

The latest high profile decision in a gig economy case – McGranaghan v MEPC Music Ltd – brings with it an unusual background, that of a musician and member of a gigging band. 

In this episode of KC Connect, Harry Wall and Fiona Egan, Associate Legal Directors at Ibec, review the case in detail, look at how it draws from the standards set down in Karshan, and how they apply to the unique circumstances at play.
