will be rolled out across the US under the brand name Carshare from November 8 to its 100 million users.“Carshare we think is a spectacular innovation, where essentially owners who are not utilising their car 95 per cent of the time can share it – we think that’s a powerful idea,” Mr Khosrowshahi told“We view our most significant competitor as car ownership and to get you to drop that second car and then hopefully your first car, we have to have services for every single occasion,” he said.
Workplace Minister Tony Burke, who has branded gig work a “cancer” on the economy, has vowed to give the Fair Work Commission new powers to set minimum pay and conditions for gig workers. The TWU disputes the “healthy” hourly wage rates and says Uber picks lucrative peak windows. The union’s latest surveys claim the hourly rate is just $12.35 for ride-share drivers and $10.42 for delivery riders. National secretary Michael Kaine expects the real battle to be played out at the FWC.
“It should be a minimum wage, plus the cost recovery for capital expenses like buying a vehicle, funding the lease, paying for your fuel and maintenance, all of those costs which have to be included. Otherwise, you’re not paying the minimum wage. ”But Mr Khosrowshahi cautions about losing the benefits of flexibility that became apparent during the pandemic.
