Uber Says New NYC Courier Rule ‘Singles Out' Immigrant Workers
Uber Technologies Inc. is pushing back on a new NYC proposal requiring delivery app workers to display company-issued identification numbers on reflective vests, saying it 'singles out' immigrant workers for 'heightened surveillance and control.'
The new rules, proposed Monday by Mayor Eric Adams in the name of worker safety, would mandate that companies like Uber and DoorDash Inc. issue identification cards containing a unique number alongside the name and photo of each courier. They would be required to produce it upon demand of a police officer or others 'authorized by law.'
