Promotion is a fairly touchy topic to bring up with your employer. But despite the sensitivity of the subject, it may be even more difficult for some as research shows that one in five workers face inequality when trying to climb up the ladder. But who exactly is this discrimination affecting? That's what our reporter Anviksha Patel asked Nicola Sullivan, Senior Director at Lee Hecht Harrison Penna.

What basic rights do gig economy workers have?
Recently we had another case testing the rights of gig economy workers. Self-employed cycle courier Andrew Boxer took the firm Excel to an employment tribunal arguing that he was a "worker" as defined by the Employment Rights Act - therefore, should get basic rights including holiday pay and the national minimum wage. His claim was backed by the Independent Workers Union of Great Britain and the employment tribunal agreed with him. To find out what rulings such as this will mean for the gig economy Georgie Frost was joined by Kevin Charles, Director of Crosslands Employment Solicitors.
