Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Deliveroo IPO: Investors shun UK delivery firm over workers’ rights” – below is their description.

UK-based food delivery company Deliveroo is due to be listed on the London stock exchange in just a few weeks.

But its riders say it is an exploitative business model that makes it impossible to earn a decent living.

Several of the UK’s biggest investors say they will not be buying any shares because of concerns about how Deliveroo treats its workers.
