Uber pops, lift-sharing, were shut down in Sweden in may and now has around 60 people convicted for driving a taxi without a permit.
How does the new delningsekonomin the rights and obligations of those who work, we wonder?
the Company has encountered resistance in several european countries and it has become lawsuits against drivers in both Sweden and other countries.
the Ubers europachef Pierre-Dimitri Gore-Coty says that he regrets that the drivers had to go through what they had done. Therefore that around 60 drivers have been convicted for driving for Uber pop.
Uber claimed that it was about carpooling and wanted to test the legislation in Sweden to see if this was possible. The drivers had to take the hit. Prosecutors and police going so far as to say that it is a exploitation.
Pierre-Dimitri Gore-Coty admits that Ubers rapid expansion can be perceived as aggressive while at the same time has made itself into an industry that in many parts of Europe are heavily regulated, with, for example, taximonopol.
Now test the Uber a new idea with el-mops and meals on wheels. The idea is that you should be able to book a ride in the three-wheel mopeds and whether this äffarsidén may remain or not remains to be seen.
So how does companies like Uber terms and conditions in the labour market? They are an example of a growing delningsekonomi, where the borrowing and exchange of goods and services with each other, instead of to take.
Anders Sandoff is a lecturer at the Gothenburg school of Economics, says that it is wrong to the drivers and not the company who are held to account in the way they have done in Uberfallet.
– It is under all the criticism and we are really not used to large, global companies to act in this way in Sweden. So where can one draw sharp criticism. And it has also, of course, district courts and the court of appeal made, ” he says.
How widespread is this type of delningsekonomi in the world?
– It is jättevanligt. We have only seen the beginning. It is from airbnb, where you rent out an apartment, to the different types of tjänsterutföranden. So the forecast is that this type of activities will translate 3 000 billion for a number of years, ” he says.
another example of delningsekonomi Anders Sandoff talking about is that the people, via an app, have begun to rent out public parking spaces, by occupying the site and then sell it many times more expensive to someone who is desperate for a p-place. To people thus, users of public spaces for themselves to make money.
it Is free for anyone to start an app and do it in this way?
” Yes, and the way it should be, but society needs to become better at to manage this type of challenges and be more proactive. For example, cities must be more active in creating this kind of infrastructure, ” says Anders Sandoff.
He says while there are risks associated with how these services work in other parts of the world where regulation is not as developed and clear as in the us.
It can understand that it then becomes easier to exploit the workforce, and this is a "race to the bottom" where the use of people who have a very low initial value to perform a service, ” says Anders Sandoff.
