Feb 16 2021 Share

More than 1,200 non-EU nationals who work with popular food delivery platforms as couriers are employed on “illegal work contracts”.

The Cabinet has been informed that these documents must be revised. In the coming weeks, Malta’s Employment Agency will be included in order to ensure the redrafting of such contracts, otherwise, operators would be liable to fines.
