UBER doesn't want to pay for employee benefits, overtime, pensions, rest breaks or video cameras. So it forces drivers to sign faux "independent contractor" contracts with contract UBER drivers. UBER created a hostile working environment where rape occurs. UBER's longtime use of "cramdown" forced arbitration clauses in "contracts of adhesion" have forced UBER rape victims to arbitration or mediation. In 1989, United States Department of Labor Deputy Chief Administrative Law Judge James L. Guill and I published a scholarly article in the American Bar Association's "Judges' Journal" ("A Rush to Unfairness -- the Downside to Alternative Dispute Resolution.") UBER's monopoly and monopsony power and resulting mistreatment of drivers and rape victims alike underlines the need for legal reforms that Judge Guill and I recommended.
