Are Uber Drivers Employees?

Sometimes there’s confusion about whether Uber drivers are employees or independent contractors. Uber drivers are in fact independent contractors.

Uber was actually sued in the past for trying to treat Uber drivers as both employees and independent contractors at the same time, choosing to punish drivers in ways they shouldn’t have been doing. The easy way to remember that Uber drivers are independent contractors is the fact that Uber calls them “driver-partners”. The word partner shows that you’re working with Uber but not an employee of Uber.
