Uber: An aggregator or co-partner?

Will it now continue to position itself as an aggregator that charges a fee, or will it be a co-partner with its drivers

Uber has a habit of being in the news for all the wrong reasons. One of the main charges against the company is that it exploits the drivers that sign on to its platform. In the UK for instance, a Committee of MPs stated in April this year that “the hard to comprehend contracts seem designed to stop workers asserting their rights”. In the same month, a district judge in the US issued a temporary restraining order on a 2015 Seattle law that would give drivers for rideshare companies the right to join a union.

India, too, is no stranger
