Lyft Settles Landmark Driver Misclassification Lawsuit for $272.5 Million, With Critics Saying Workers Are Owed Far More

Lyft has settled a long-running class action brought by drivers who argued they were misclassified as independent contractors, agreeing to pay $272.5 million. The case addressed the central question in the gig economy: whether a platform’s control over fa
