California rideshare drivers have moved closer to statewide union representation under the Transportation Network Company Drivers Labor Relations Act. The California Gig Workers Union reported reaching the support threshold overseen by the Public Employment Relations Board, beginning the next stage of the certification process.
Why this matters in San Diego
Drivers continue raising concerns about earnings, benefits, deactivations, safety, and transparency. Some believe collective bargaining could give drivers greater leverage. Others want clearer answers about dues, governance, representation, and how a future agreement would affect independent-contractor flexibility.
San Diego Drivers United is an independent nonprofit, not a union. Our role is to help drivers understand the process, compare claims with official documents, and make informed decisions without pressure.
