Uber drivers union asks EU court to overrule ‘robo-firing’ by algorithm
Former Uber drivers have filed a legal challenge against the company in Europe, arguing that its “robo-firing” practices contravene GDPR.
The union is arguing that Uber’s alleged “robo-firing” practices contravene Article 22 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which seeks to protect individuals from automated decision-making. The action has been filed in the District Court of Amsterdam, where Uber’s European HQ is located.
