Ridesharing platform, Uber has been increasing the gender diversity of its workforce, which was 57.4 percent male and 42.6 percent female as of 31 December 2022. The above figures only refer to staff that are employed directly by Uber, and do not include drivers. Uber take the view that their drivers are independent contractors, rather than company employees. The same is true for their main competitor in the U.S. market - Lyft. This means that drivers need to pay for all operating costs out of their earnings, such vehicle maintenance and insurance.
