Bike couriers launch legal fight over workers' rights - BBC News
Four bicycle couriers are taking their companies to a tribunal in a bid to get employed workers' rights, including paid holidays and the minimum wage.
If successful, the case could have a huge impact on the growing number of workers who are being wrongly categorised as self-employed.
The couriers are considered self-employed contractors despite working for one firm for about 50 hours a week.
