> DoorDash has also updated its deactivation policy to ensure that all its delivery people retain access to the platform unless they violate the rules of engagement. Before, there was no single source of truth when it came to deactivating people from the platform. Another change is that DoorDash delivery workers will be able to appeal a deactivation if they feel they should not have been deactivated from the platform. > ... the resolution they agreed on was not to change independent contractors to employee status, but rather change some policies to improve clarity and ensure more rights for the workers. The article doesn't really give me a good idea of what the original lawsuit was about. It states that DoorDash was misclassifying "Dashers" as contractors, but other than the cash, the only thing they mention wrt the settlement is that DoorDash will change some of its deactivation policies, presumably because Dashers were being removed from the platform without clear reason. So, is this a case where the class action accused DoorDash of misclassifying employees and then settled for a pile of cash, some minor policy tweaks, and no fundamental change in the company's contractor practices?
