A Study on the value of flexible platform work to European economies and citizens.

Commissioned by Delivery Platforms Europe, research institute Copenhagen Economics designed and implemented the first pan-European industry study on the value of flexible platform work to European economies and European citizens. The study, conducted by renowned research institute Copenhagen Economics, surveyed more than 16.000 couriers across 24 European countries and identified flexibility as the principal reason that the vast majority of couriers choose platform work. The study also finds that an EU-wide policy shift removing the possibility of flexible work could prevent up to 250,000 couriers from accessing platform work, drive up to 75,000 couriers across Europe out of the workforce entirely, and put up to €800m of income at stake
