California Attorney General Xavier Becerra brought a lawsuit, along with city attorneys fromSan Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego to prevent Uber and Lyft from classifying their drivers as independent contractors. The suit, filed in San Francisco Superior Court, alleged Uber and Lyft violated the state's new law known asAssembly Bill 5 (AB5), which was created as a way to classify gig workers as full employees and ensure benefits from their employers. Uber and Lyft were among a group of tech companies that have previously opposed the bill, arguing their workers enjoy the flexibility of creating their own schedules as contractors.
