Uber Eats delivery workers in New York City have raised concerns that recent changes to the app have made it more difficult to receive tips. This follows a mandate by New York City requiring Uber Eats to pay delivery drivers a minimum of $17.99 per hour. As a result, order volumes have dropped by 45%, and the average salary for drivers has decreased by 69%. Delivery apps have also deployed numerous e-bikes, leading to health and safety concerns that the City Council is addressing in a heated hearing.
Recent regulations that boosted wages for fast-food employees in California and app delivery drivers in New York and Seattle are cited in historic restaurant closures and a downward spiral of job cuts and reduced business. https://t.co/TXRdYfdcR1
