Unions hail end of the road for bogus self-employment after Uber finally admits defeat

TRADE UNIONS hailed the “end of the road for bogus self-employment” today after Uber finally accepted it would have to pay its drivers the minimum wage and provide holiday and pensions. The ride-hailing giant announced that, as of today, more than 70,000 drivers will be treated as workers under British employment law. In an email sent out to its customers, Uber said: “Uber drivers in the UK will be paid holiday time, automatically enrolled into a pension plan, and guaranteed to earn at least the National Living Wage.” Uber’s policy shift followed lengthy legal action by unions and workers, with the Supreme Court ruling last month that its drivers should be treated as workers and are not self-employed.

Uber grants 70 000 UK drivers worker rights after landmark ruling

Uber said it is granting worker status to its UK drivers, entitling them to the minimum wage, holiday pay and other benefits. The UK will be the first country in the world where Uber will have this business model. The firm didn’t specify how much the reclassification will cost, but said it doesn’t expect to change its earnings forecast for the quarter or the year. Uber will reclassify all 70 000 of its UK drivers as workers, entitling them to the minimum wage, vacation pay and other benefits after a landmark ruling from the Supreme Court last month. The ride-hailing app’s drivers will receive at least the national living wage of $12.11 (just over R250) per hour starting Wednesday. This will be the minimum drivers can earn, in what Uber described as an “earnings floor, not an earnings ceiling.”
