INTRODUCTION
1, This complaint involves a representative action for damages and is brought by and on
behalf of persons who are or have been at some time between August 12, 2010, and the
present, employed as drivers for UBER TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware
Corporation with its principal place of business in California (hereafter referred to as
“UBER” or “Defendant”), a transportation network company (“TNC”) which provides
prearranged transportation services to consumers in California for compensation using an
online-enabled application or platform,
2. This is a California state-wide class action which challenges UBER’s uniform policy of
willfully mis-classifying its drivers as independent contractors when, in fact, each such
driver is and/or was an employee of UBER.
3, Asarresult of UBER’s unlawful mis-classification of its drivers as independent
contractors, UBER has uniformly violated the requirements of the California Labor Code
and California Industrial Welfare Commission (“IWC”) Wage Order No. 9-2001, as
amended (“Wage Order No. 9"), by, among other things:
a, Failing to pay its drivers at least the minimum wage required by California law for
every hour worked;
b. Failing to pay its drivers overtime compensation for hours worked in excess of 8
hours in-one-day and/or 40 hours in-one-week;
c. Failing to pay its drivers premium wages for missed meal periods;
4, Failing to pay its drivers premium wages for missed rest periods;
e. Failing to compensate its drivers for reporting-time premiums;
{Failing to reimburse its drivers for employment related expenses.
2. Unlawfully taking gratuities from each of its drivers in California;
h, Failing to keep accurate employment records for its drivers in California; and,

PARTIES
Plaintiff STEVEN PRICE (hereinafter "Plaintift*) is, and at all times relevant hereto has
been, an individual and a resident of Los Angeles County, California. At some time
during the period from August 12, 2010, to the present, Plaintiff worked for Defendant
UBER as a driver in Los Angeles, California,
Plaintiff is informed and believes, and on that basis alleges, that Defendant UBER is a
corporation, organized under the laws of the state of Delaware, which is licensed by the
California Secretary of State to conduct business in the state of California, and which
does conduct substantial business on a regular and continuous basis in the state of
California. UBER’s principal place of business is in San Francisco, California
The true names and capacities of the defendants named herein as DOES 1 through 100,
inclusive, whether individual, corporate, associate or otherwise, are unknown to Plaintiff
who therefore sues such defendants under fictitious names pursuant to California Code of
Civil Procedure §474, Plaintiff is informed and believes, and on that basis alleges, that
these defendants, DOES | through 100, are in some manner or capacity, and to some
degree, legally responsible and liable for the damages of which Plaintiff complains.
Plaintiff will seek leave of Court to amend this Complaint to set forth the true names and
capacities of all fictitiously-named defendants within a reasonable time after they become
known.
Plaintiff is informed and believes and on that basis alleges, that at all times relevant
hereto, defendants UBER and DOES 1 through 100, and each of them, acted as
employers of Plaintiff, and all others similarly situated.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE
This is a civil action brought under and pursuant to the California Labor Code and the
California Business & Professions Code. :
This Court has jurisdiction over this action pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure §410.10.
‘The monetary relief which Plaintiff seeks is in excess of the jurisdictional minimum
eae
‘COMPLAINT FOR DAMAGESeT/e1/90

required by this Court and will be established according to proof at trial.
Venue is proper in this Court pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure §§395 and 395.5
because the employment agreements at issue, whether real or implied, were made and/or
performed in the county of Los Angeles, California. Furthermore, Defendant’s liability
arises, by virtue of the employment of Plaintiff, in the county of Los Angeles, California.
Plaintiff is informed and believes, and on that basis alleges, that Defendant UBER and
DOES | through 100, and each of them, have had sufficient contacts with the state of
California for this Court to exercise jurisdiction over them.
FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
UBER is a California-based transportation business referred to by the California Public
Utilities Commission as a TNC. Through a mobile phone software application, UBER
connects local travelers who seek transportation via automobile with local drivers (“Class
Members”) who are and have been screened, trained, controlled, and are paid by UBER.
All UBER drivers are subject to and must abide by all of UBER’s uniform rules,
regulations and policies.
UBER operates much like a taxi cab service. UBER customers who wish to pay for local
transportation via automobile must log on to a mobile phone application and enter
information regarding, among other things, where they wish to be picked up from and
where they wish to be dropped off. Then, through its software application, UBER sends
each customer’s information to a local UBER driver.
‘The UBER driver then picks up the customer and transports the customer to the desired
destination.
Each UBER customer pays for the service by paying UBER directly via credit card based
on an amount calculated solely by UBER and based on the miles driven and the amount
of time it took to reach the destination.
UBER deceptively and falsely advises all customers that a gratuity is included in the cost
of the transportation service that UBER charges. However, UBER drivers do not receive
the total proceeds from any such gratuity. Rather, UBER drivers receive at most only a
4.
‘COMPLAINT FOR DAMAGESwiyer/eo
Sew aan
19,
20.
2.
portion of any additional gratuity amount added by UBER to the customer's charge.
Al payments from the customer, including any such gratuities, must be paid by the
customer directly to UBER. UBER rules do not permit its drivers to accept any type of
payment from its customers. Instead, UBER, pays each of its drivers a portion of the
amount received from the customer (i.e., a portion of the charge for the service and a
portion of any gratuity), as determined solely by UBER.
In an effort to avoid providing its drivers with the minimum benefits and protections
afforded employees in California, UBER has willfully, uniformly, and unilaterally
classified each and every one of its drivers as “independent contractors,” rather than
“employees,” despite the fact that the factual circumstances of the relationship between
UBER and its drivers clearly demonstrate that UBER drivers are in fact “employees” of
the company under California law.
Under California law, UBER drivers should be considered employees for, among others,
the following reasons:
a. UBER retains the right to control, and in fact does control, the manner and means
by which all UBER drivers accomplish their work;
b. UBER retains the right to hire and fire drivers in its sole discretion;
¢. UBER retains the right to terminate the UBER “Platform” and the UBER
application, and/or to block drivers from using the Platform and/or application,
which effectively gives UBER the ability and right to prevent its drivers from
picking up customers, working, and earning an income;
d. UBER drivers do not engage in a business distinct from that of UBER;
e. UBER sets all rates of pay for its drivers and prohibits its drivers from setting
rates of pay for their services;
f. UBER requires its drivers to consent to receiving emails and texts from UBER, all
of which drivers are required to pay for re«
ing such emails and texts at the
rate(s) charged by their mobile phone service providers, including without
limitation, notification emails, emails or text messages informing drivers about
“Se

potential available customers, and emails or text messages regarding UBER
promotions by which drivers are required'to abide;
UBER unilaterally and in its sole discretion requires cach driver to accept any and
all promotional discounts offered by UBER to customers;
UBER requires each driver to engage in training before being permitted to work
as an UBER driver, which, inter alia, instructs drivers regarding UBER's
requirements for how they are to interact with customers;
UBER requires that each driver ensure that his or her vehicle comply with
UBER’s requirements for appearance and cleanliness;
UBER retains the right to discipline its drivers in its sole discretion;
UBER limits the geographical locations in which its drivers are permitted to work,
and restricts its drivers” ability to transport customers more than a certain number
of miles, as determined solely by UBER;
UBER restricts its drivers ability to work.and eam income by only permitting
them to work certain hours each day;
UBER prohibits its drivers from hiring other employees to assist them; and,
UBER requites its drivers to respond to and accept all customer ride requests
unless they are transporting another customer at the time.
UBER has not, and will not be able to overcome the legal presumption under California
law that each Class Member is in fact an employee.
As a result of UBER’s uniform mis-classification of its drivers as independent
contractors, UBER does not pay its drivers a wage for each hour, or portion thereof, that
they work, Instead, UBER pays its drivers using a formula, derived and determined
solely by UBER, based on and related in some way to the amount UBER receives from its
customers, The consequenees of this practice are, without limitation, that UBER drivers
throughout Califomia are: not paid for all of the hours that they actually work; not paid at
least the minimum wage required by California law for each hour worked; not paid
overtime compensation for hours that they actually work in excess of 8 hours in-a-day

and/or 40 hours in-a-week; and, have had portions of their gratuities unlawfully taken
from them by UBER.
In addition, this unlawful employment praetice has also resulted in Defendant’s failure to
keep accurate time records for its driver employees, and failure to provide its driver
employees with proper wage statements showing the actual number of hours each such
employee has worked,
In addition to Defendant's unlawful wage payment practices, UBER has uniformly failed
to provide its drivers throughout California with meal and rest periods as required by the
California Labor Code and Wage Order No. 9
UBER has also uniformly required its drivers to periodically report for work on days
during which no work was available, and/or days during which the drivers were not put to
‘work, and on which the driver received no pay. On such days, UBER has failed to pay its
drivers the reporting time pay required by Wage Order No. 9
UBER also has a uniform policy of failing to reimburse its drivers for necessary
expenditures incurred in the course of their duties as UBER drivers.
CLASS ACTION A
IN
Plaintiff brings this action on behalf of himself and on behalf of all other persons
similarly situated (the Class”), namely each and every person who, at any time during
the period from August 12, 2010, to the present (hereafter referred to as the “Class
Period”), has worked, or currently works, as a driver for UBER in California (“Class
Members”).
Plaintiff is and has been a member of the proposed Class described herein.
The number of persons in the proposed Class herein is so numerous that joinder of all
such persons would be impracti¢able. While the exact number and identities of all such
persons are unknown to Plaintiff at this time and can only be obtained through
appropriate discovery, Plaintiff is informed and believes, and on that basis alleges, that
the proposed Class herein includes over 1,000 persons.
Disposition of Plaintiff's claims in a class action will benefit all parties and the Court,

There is a well-defined community of interest presented by the proposed Class herein in
that, among other things, each member of the proposed Class has an interest in receiving
the minimum compensation required by California law for the hours they have worked
for Defendant, obtaining other appropriate legal relief for the harm of which Plaintiff
complains, and obtaining other adequate compensation for the common damages which
Plaintiff and all other persons similarly situated have suffered as a result of Defendant's
actions.
Each Class Member herein has performed labor for Defendant at some time during the
Class Period for which they have not been properly compensated, in that they have not
received the minimum compensation required by the California Labor Code and Wage
Order No. 9.
Defendants have also deprived Plaintiff and all other Class Members of other statutory
rights guaranteed to them by the California Labor Code and/or Wage Order No. 9, as
described more fully herein
A class action in this case is superior to any other available method for the fair and
efficient adjudication of the claims presented herein.
‘The prosecution of separate actions by individual members of the proposed Class herein
would create a risk of inconsistent and/or varying adjudications with respect to individual
‘members of the proposed Class which would or may establish incompatible standards of
conduct for Defendants and which would also create a risk of adjudications with respect
to individual members of the proposed Class herein which would, as a practical matter, be
dispositive of the interests of other members of the proposed Class not parties to the
particular individual adjudications, and/or would or may substantially impede or impair
the ability of those other members to protect their interests.
Common questions of law and fact exist in this case with respect to the proposed Class
which predominate over any questions affecting only individual members of the Class
and which do not vary between members thereof.
At some time during the Class Period, all of the individuals in the proposed Class herein

as an independent contractor a fee, or making any deductions from compensation, for any
purpose, including for goods, materials, space renal, services, government licenses,
repairs, equipment maintenance, or fines arising from the individual's employment where
any of the acts described in this paragraph would have violated the law if the individual
had not been misclassified.”
Atall relevant times during the Class Period, Labor Code §226.8 has been in full force
and effect
Defendant has violated Labor Code §226.8 by uniformly, willfully and unlawfully
miselassifying Plaintiff and all other Class Members as independent contractors and by
charging Plaintiff and all other Class Members fees and making unlawful deductions
from such Class Members’ compensation.
By virtue of Defendant’s violation of Labor Code §226.8, Plaintiff and all other Class
Members have suffered, and continue to suffer, damages in amounts which are presently
unknown to Plaintiff but which will be ascertained according to proof at trial.
Plaintiff and each other Class Member are entitled to, and seek, payment from Defendant
of civil penalties pursuant to Labor Code §§226.8(b) and ().

himself and all others similarly situated)
Plaintiff re-alleges and incorporates by reference, as though fully set forth herein,
parageaphs 1 through 59 of this Complaint.
Defendant is the employer of Plaintiff and all other Class Members.
Defendant willfully and uniformly mis-classified Plaintiff and all other Class Members as
independent contractors when in fact each such Class Member was and/or is an employee
of UBER :
Labor Code §1194 provides that any employee who receives less than the legal minimum

‘wage applicable to the employee is entitled to recover in a civil action the unpaid balance
of the full amount of the applicable minimum wage, plus interest thereon, attorney's fees,
and costs of suit.
Labor Code §1197 provides that the minimum wage is the minimum wage set by the
Industrial Welfare Commission in the applicable wage order, in this case Wage Order No
9 applicable to transportation workers. Wage Order No. 9 incorporates by reference the
minimum wage currently set by statute, which pursuant to Labor Code §1182.12 is $9.00
per hour,
Defendant has failed to pay Plaintiff, and all other Class Members similarly situated, at
least the legally required minimum wage for some portion of the hours that each such
person worked as a driver for UBER during the Class Period.
Defendant's failire to pay Plaintiff, and such other Class Members, at least the minimum
wage as required by law, violates the provisions of Labor Code §§1182.12 and 1197, and
Wage Order No. 9.
By virtue of Defendant's unlawful failure to pay minimum wages to Plaintiff and all other
Class Members when due, all such persons have suffered, and continue to suffer,
damages in amounts which are presently unknown to Plaintiff but which will be
ascertained according to proof at trial.
Pursuant to Labor Code §§1194 and 1194.2, Plaintiff and all other similarly situated
Class Members are entitled to recover from Defendant the full balance of any and all
unpaid minimum wages, interest thereon, liquidated damages equal to the full amount of
unpaid minimum wages and interest thereon, attorney’s fees, costs of suit, and penalties
