Market Chatter: Uber Pressed for More Transparency on Driver Pay by Investor Group
Dec 20, 2024 1:23 PM

04:07 PM EST, 12/20/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Uber Technologies ( UBER ) faces a proposed shareholder resolution to be considered at its next annual meeting that would require the ride-hailing and delivery company to provide more detailed information about how its contract workers are compensated, according to a Bloomberg report on Friday.

The resolution, submitted by SOC Investment Group, which advises labor unions and other investors, highlights concerns over Uber's ( UBER ) lack of transparency regarding driver pay.

SOC argues that Uber ( UBER ) provides few details about its pay structure, including the share of rider and delivery fees it retains, changes in driver compensation over time, and whether drivers are earning a sustainable income, according to the news outlet.

Uber ( UBER ) and SOC Investment did not immediately respond to a request on Friday from MT Newswires seeking additional information.
