GMB hails historic union recognition deal with Uber

THE GMB union has hailed its “historic and groundbreaking” recognition deal with Uber. Under the agreement announced on Wednesday evening, the union will potentially represent tens of thousands of private hire drivers across the country – there are 70,000 signed up to the company’s app. GMB will now have greater power to fight for better pay, pensions and health and safety for its members at Uber. The company, the only major private hire operator to recognise a union, will support workers if they choose to join GMB and union representatives will also have a presence in Uber’s driver support hubs to boost membership.

Uber to give UK drivers workers rights after court loss

Uber to give UK drivers workers’ rights after court loss Reuters, LONDON In a major victory for unions, Uber Technologies Inc’s more than 70,000 British drivers are to be paid the minimum wage while picking up and driving passengers as part of the ride-hailing company’s agreement to grant workers’ rights after it lost a groundbreaking British Supreme Court case last month. Uber has pushed back against European and US labor advocates’ demands for better driver compensation with some success, calling for a “third way” of combining flexible on-demand work with more limited benefits than traditional employees receive. The agreement in the UK classifies Uber drivers as workers who are entitled to fewer rights than those classed as employees, who are also guaranteed sick pay and parental leave.
