The Law Office of Williams & Associates, PC has been informed that the California Employment Development Department has recently won at least two administrative decisions against Uber in appeals of Obstructed Claims for Unemployment Insurance Benefits, before the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board. In plain English, this means that the state of California determined that Uber drivers are misclassified as independent contractors, that Uber should have paid state employment taxes and withholding on the payments rendered to those drivers.
