Bill overview
The Empowering App-Based Workers Act aims to increase transparency and accountability in how digital labor platforms operate. It requires these platforms to disclose information about their use of electronic monitoring tools and automated decision-making systems, which often influence pay and work assignments. The bill also seeks to limit the percentage of fares that platforms can keep as ‘take rates’ and addresses concerns about wage theft and misclassification of workers. Ultimately, the goal is to protect app-based workers’ rights and improve working conditions.
