In echoes of an ongoing lawsuit against Uber in California for similar reasons, the complaints claim drivers are employees and as such, should receive certain benefits, reports the Chicago Tribune.
The complaints were filed in San Francisco Superior Court on behalf of the delivery drivers; the complaints against GrubHub and DoorDash are both class actions while the Caviar complaint is a demand for arbitration on behalf of a San Francisco driver.
In one of the complaints, the plaintiffs say GrubHub treated delivery drivers just like employees, except without providing any benefits, like reimbursements for gas, parking and phone data, overtime and getting paid at least minimum wage.
“For all of these cases, we’re also representing drivers individually, including filing individual arbitrations where necessary,” said the attorney who filed the complaints.
None of the companies offered a statement on the lawsuits.
