Riders who say they cannot get a certificate - without which it is impossible to complete the form on the Deliveroo website - are told to"keep in contact with your doctor, Health Service Hotline or the 111 website for the UK to continue to request certification." Sources from other gig economy companies, who also rely on this system to certify workers' absence, confirmed that they were waiting for the government to introduce the service.For Deliveroo couriers who are self-isolating, the absence of support places them in a difficult position, not only financially, but also because they may struggle to finish their period of quarantine.
