Listen Later

Uber Lyft Drivers & Gig Economy Workers Weekly News:   This week I have John Wilkerson on the show to discuss when Rideshare drivers will return to the platforms, and what will it take to bring them back?

This week we cover:

  1. Jay Cutler/Uber Eats (masking).   
  • Lack of driver PPE when most needed.   
  • SAFETY Canceling because too many passengers, leaves drivers in dangerous situations.   
  • With riders back in full, why are drivers not returning to the rideshare platforms.   
  • Passenger fares are still way too high, drivers not seeing their cut.   
  • Gig Worker Portable Benefits.    
  • Autonomous reality check.   
  • Is Uber marketing for its driver partners?   
  • Lyft and Uber wasted their marketing money months ago.   
  • Pandemic flip-flop Rideshare to Delivery, how will they bring back rideshare drivers.   
  • Who will bring drivers back first, Uber or Lyft?
