San Francisco subpoenas Uber, Lyft for driver classification records (Reuters)

May 30, 2018

Reuters reported San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera yesterday subpoenaed Uber Technologies Inc. and Lyft Inc. to turn over records relating to how the ride-hailing companies classify drivers, as well as driver wages, healthcare and other benefits, the latest demand in a year-long investigation. Herrera is seeking evidence to determine whether Uber and Lyft are in compliance with a recent California Supreme Court decision that made it more difficult to classify workers as independent contractors.
