Most companies, such as Uber or Grubhub, choose to classify their drivers as self-employed contractors instead of employees, eliminating obligations such as overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act. This week`s sixth circle looked at a dispute of this kind, but at a fundamental level: can an independent contractor who signs an arbitration agreement be compelled to arbitrate in court instead of suing? Because of the way the runners decided to argue their arguments, in Carmen Wallace v. Grubhub, the sixth circle, they were bound by the arbitration agreement. The complainant drivers appear to be facing an increase, but their letter of objection expressed the point that their dispute should not be the subject of arbitration on the basis of the release of transport workers. The exception, which was found in 9.C No. 1 in the United States, removes all employment contracts of sailors, railway workers or any other category of workers working in the foreign or intergovernmental trade of the faA coverage area.
To qualify, the individual applicant (1) must work for a company under an employment contract and (2) be a transportation worker who works in intergovernmental trade. Even if drivers do not cross national borders, they are still active in intergovernmental trade because they participate in the “fluidity” of intergovernmental trade on the basis of the goods used, the drivers say. Grubhub drivers, although considered independent contractors rather than employees, all signed a “Delivery Service Provider Agreement,” which contained a compromise clause for employment disputes. Motorists in several cities filed a complaint claiming that Grubhub had not paid for full overtime.
