flag New Zealand's Court of Appeal rules Uber drivers as employees, granting them employment protections.

flag New Zealand's Court of Appeal has ruled that Uber drivers are employees, not contractors, granting them full employment protections such as sick leave, holiday pay, and the right to join a union. flag The decision contradicts the government's commitment to maintain a "status quo" where contractors cannot challenge their employment status in the Employment Court. flag The ruling is significant, as it could change the landscape of employment in New Zealand, ensuring more workers have secure jobs and are not exploited by companies like Uber.
