Falsely?? How about a source for that bs?
- lmm 3y agoHere's an example of a sane court ruling, with a detailed explanation for why: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-56123668 https://www.bbc.com/news/business-56123668 . Unfortunately US courts seem to pay too much attention to the form of of their business arrangements and not enough to the substance.

I've seen plenty of posts to the contrary. > I don’t see how going onto an app and choosing gigs for people can be confused as doing work for a company. Well, there is a detailed explanation for why what Uber does constitutes employment in the article I linked.
- TheNewsIsHere 3y agoI used to use Uber a lot more than I do now, and so many drivers I met were contract drivers for various transport and delivery app as their entire source of income. More recently the ride share drivers I’ve gotten have been older folks who report that they’re just supplementing income. A lot of the delivery drivers (Uber, DoorDash, Postmates, Amazon Flex, Instacart, etc) I see are younger and seem to be doing it full time.

- chongli 3y agoThat’s old news. Uber responded to that ruling by changing the specific things the Supreme Court based their decision on. They did not switch to employing people for set hours.
