Although, driver's can't set their own rates. To me, this sounds like employment. Historically, part-time workers have usually had to set their hours in advance, for practical reasons. To me, the only thing Uber's tech does is minimize the advance notice, but not really fundamentally alter the relationship.
- chinese_dan 10y agoA part-time worker would have to be there a certain amount of hours, or they would be fired. An Uber driver can come and go as they please. This is the fundamental difference.
- acjohnson55 10y agoThat's simply because the no-tech solution doesn't have the flexibility. But that isn't inherent to the concept of part-time employment.
