Uber says it will treat UK drivers as workers in wake of Supreme Court ruling – TechCrunch

Uber says it will treat UK drivers as workers in wake of Supreme Court ruling Uber said Tuesday that drivers in the U.K. who use its ride-hailing app will be treated as workers, a designation that will give them some benefits such as holiday pay. However, even as Uber seemingly concedes to a Supreme Court ruling last month, a new fight could already be brewing over the company’s decision to calculate working time from the point a trip commences rather than when drivers log on to the app. Uber said that beginning Wednesday all drivers in the U.K. will be paid holiday time based on 12.07% of their earnings, which will be paid out every two weeks. Drivers will also be paid at least the minimum wage (called the National Living Wage) after accepting a trip request and after expenses, Uber said in a statement. Eligible drivers in the U.K. will automatically be enrolled into a pension plan with contributions from Uber. These contributions will represent approximately 3% of a driver’

Uber to give UK drivers workers rights after court groundbreaking defeat

In a major victory for unions, Uber s more than 70,000 British drivers will be paid the minimum wage while picking up and driving passengers as part of the ride-hailing company s agreement to grant workers rights after it lost a groundbreaking Supreme Court case last month. Uber Technologies Inc has pushed back against European and U.S. labor advocates demands for better driver compensation with some success, calling for a third way of combining flexible on-demand work with more limited benefits than traditional employees receive. The agreement in Britain classifies Uber drivers as workers who are entitled to fewer rights than those classed as employees, who are also guaranteed sick pay and parental leave. Uber in California last year pushed and won a similar compromise on drivers status.

Uber grants 70 000 UK drivers worker rights after landmark ruling

Uber said it is granting worker status to its UK drivers, entitling them to the minimum wage, holiday pay and other benefits. The UK will be the first country in the world where Uber will have this business model. The firm didn’t specify how much the reclassification will cost, but said it doesn’t expect to change its earnings forecast for the quarter or the year. Uber will reclassify all 70 000 of its UK drivers as workers, entitling them to the minimum wage, vacation pay and other benefits after a landmark ruling from the Supreme Court last month. The ride-hailing app’s drivers will receive at least the national living wage of $12.11 (just over R250) per hour starting Wednesday. This will be the minimum drivers can earn, in what Uber described as an “earnings floor, not an earnings ceiling.”
