Just Eat has completed the statutory consultation process, the company said on Monday. In future, Just Eat intends to adopt a more flexible delivery model in order to respond better to fluctuations in demand. The company stated that the previous shift model is no longer competitive. Negotiations on a redundancy plan are ongoing.

The Unia trade union has sharply criticised the decision. In a statement, it accuses Just Eat of intending to rely on“bogus self-employed” couriers in future, thereby circumventing labour and social security law. Together with Syndicom, it is calling on the authorities to intervene. The statement also notes that the trade unions were not involved in the consultation process.
