网约车平台Lyft已同意向加州支付2.725亿美元，以解决因将司机错误归类为独立承包商而非员工所引发的工资盗窃指控1。加州司法部长Rob Bonta称这是该州历史上最大的工资盗窃案和解1。该和解涉及2016年4月至2020年12月期间的相关指控1。
根据和解协议，超过2.37亿美元将分配给受影响的数千名Lyft司机1。Lyft在声明中表示"司机一直被正确归类，我们很高兴能将此案置身后"1。2020年11月，加州通过的第22号提案为打车软件司机的就业分类提供了豁免1。此前在2023年，Uber和Lyft曾联合同意向纽约司法部长支付3.28亿美元以解决类似索赔1，而针对Uber的相似诉讼仍在进行中1。
Lyft has agreed to pay California $272.5 million to resolve allegations that the ride-hailing company misclassified drivers as independent contractors rather than employees, resulting in wage theft 1. California Attorney General Rob Bonta characterized the settlement as "the largest wage theft settlement in California history" 1. More than $237 million of the total will be distributed to thousands of affected Lyft drivers 1. The settlement covers allegations spanning from April 2016 through December 2020 1.
The company stated that "drivers have been correctly classified" and expressed satisfaction with resolving the matter 1. The settlement arrives more than a year after California voters approved Proposition 22 in November 2020, which exempted ride-hailing drivers from certain worker protections in the state 1. In 2023, Uber and Lyft jointly agreed to pay $328 million to New York's attorney general to settle similar claims 1, while comparable litigation against Uber remains ongoing 1.
