Episode Details

Uber Eats is paying over 14,000 Seattle drivers nearly $4.4 million after being found in violation of city labor rules — failing to pay for canceled orders and unpaid work time. This isn’t the first time: a $1.4M settlement last summer didn’t stop the issues, prompting this bigger payout. The mayor calls it a victory for gig economy workers and accountability, while the city’s labor office secures its second-largest-ever settlement — including back pay, interest, and fines — sending a clear message that app-based companies must follow the law.
