You can read Uber and Lyfts proposed solution here:
Earnings Guarantee:
Drivers always receive at least an amount equal to 120% of minimum wage, plus 30 cents per mile compensation toward expenses, with the potential to earn more and no limits on how much drivers can make.
Health care
Health care contribution equal to 100 percent of the average employer payment toward a Covered California Plan, or $367 per month to a driver on average.
Drivers start earning this amount at 15 hours per week and reach the full amount at 25 hours per week
Drivers can earn multiple contributions from multiple companies
Occupational accident insurance to cover on-the-job injuries
Automobile accident and liability insurance
It looks like this may be settled at the ballot box.

- yhoneycomb 6y ago> Drivers start earning this amount at 15 hours per week willing to bet they'll just cap everyone at 15 hrs/wk
- save_ferris 6y agoYep, the companies’ ability to distribute the workload doesn’t get as much discussion when these kinds of proposals are thrown around, but that’s exactly what gives them so much leverage when trying to determine how much value to extract from the system.
- FireBeyond 6y agoMmhmm, how many other corporations do exactly the same thing? "Benefits kick in at 30hrs / week" Oh, you're scheduled for 28 hours every week and no more, no matter how short staffed we are? Sucks to be you.
- frockington1 6y ago"Benefits kick in at 30hrs / week" is a direct result of the ACA. At the time I was working retail and saw that one coming. I have no idea if politicians are dumber than an 18 year old, or just don't care
- tick_tock_tick 6y agoThey don't care it sounds good on the campaign trail and most people voting don't put two and two together to figure out why they went from 40hrs/week to 29.
- j4kp07 6y agoIf costs go up, but revenue stays flat, then your largest expense must be cut (ie. payroll). No matter how many times this gets explained, I don't understand why anyone is surprised when it plays out in real life. eg. If you raise minimum wage, some people will lose their jobs.
