California's rideshare drivers for Uber and Lyft are close to forming the world's largest union, the California Gig Workers Union (CGWU), after securing support from at least 30% of active drivers as required by a 2025 law. This law, AB 1340, allows app-based drivers, typically independent contractors, to collectively bargain for better pay, benefits, and working conditions. The union certification process will conclude after a 30-day waiting period, positioning CGWU as the exclusive bargaining representative statewide. Drivers aim to negotiate with Uber and Lyft on key issues like pay and job security, with union dues only charged after a collective bargaining agreement is reached.
