Taxi in Tandi in New York City and Tlousine (TLC) have established new minimum wages for drorehare drivers, Bloomberg REPORT. Drivers will receive five percent increase under the new proposal, a compromise to keep Uber and Lyaranya from locking drivers in their apps.
The proposal should be voted by the TLC’s board of commissioner before applying, but to say it, it will end in the months working in the city. Uber began sporadically Locking drivers from its app In May 2024, they were restricted to pick up rides and earn money. The company blocks its app access to avoid paying drivers who worked but not actively riding. Except to introduce a minimum wage for drivers who begins around $ 18 per hour In 2022, New York also includes law stipulations that drivers need to pay for the arrival in the middle of the ride, something Uber and Lyft naturally have a problem with.
Bloomberg Corrected that TLC originally suggested a 6.1 percent raised an attempt not to disincentifize Uber and Lyure from locking drivers. The proposal will adjust how to calculate the driving fee, in exchange for the increase in the top and a guarantee that drivers are warned before they lose access to a rideshare app. Set up a five-percent increase and a commitment not to raise the bribe each year and instead based on “Repoling Dynamics,” an additional chapter. One not enough for lyft, apparently. The company told Bloomberg That is, “While these changes are a step in the right direction, we still have concerns that the underlying Pay Formula will reduce drivers to those who ran down and reduce the riding fees.”
Uber and Lyft have long been a controversial relationship with city and state governments in driver’s protections.
