  In the case of state- and municipality-owned companies providing public services, the 2021 salary increase was settled with a six-monthly delay, which was manifested in three-year, so-called “income policy” agreements.

During the course of this, within the available space limits, I discuss the process of salary negotiations (with its labor law content and consequences), the theoretical bases of the different collective labor law regulations regarding public assets, and finally, the newly emerging practical issues related to the strike rights regulation of this sector.

The paper focuses on platform workers’ right to equal treatment and aims to review the questions and challenges that arise regarding the evaluation of platform workers by consumers. The legal problem is not caused by taking consumer feedback into account per se, but by the fact that the platform relies on such consumer feedback in a different manner and to a different extent than would be the case in traditional employment. Consequently, consumer evaluations and ratings raise several questions regarding the reliability and legality of such feedback.
