Uber will slash fares nationwide next month, a move criticised by industry professionals for its impact on “vulnerable” and “underpaid” workers. From August, fares will decrease by less than 5%, with adjustments based on geography and time of travel. Uber claims this will increase rider demand and trips for drivers. However, Transport Workers Union national secretary Michael Kaine condemned the decision, highlighting the lack of minimum wage rights for drivers. He urged the industry to support early minimum standards to stabilise the market. Uber said the changes aim to balance affordable rides with earnings for drivers.Uber driver’s sickening act to 80yo pensioner.
