Pay may be calculated based on metrics other than time, but must be at least the minimum wage, which is based on time at work. For employees, if you want to pay on trips/widgets/sales/whatever, you have to also track hours. So, yes, the state is requiring Uber to pay hourly. Uber may allow flexibility of when you're on the clock, though they won't have to, but you can bet they'll require a certain amount of productivity.
