Episode 67: Do Grubhub Doordash Postmates Uber Eats Contractors Qualify for Unemployment?
Manage episode 312661073 series 3240877
Do we qualify for unemployment benefits as gig workers delivering for Grubhub, Doordash, Postmates, Uber Eats? If we have to stay home during this pandemic, or we choose to stay home for safety reasons, or we stay home because we can’t earn enough, how does that impact our ability to recover those benefits?
Normally we wouldn’t qualify, however the recent stimulus package included provisions to help self employed individuals. We talk about that in today’s episode.
Some articles that we reference in the episode.
The Department of Labor’s guidelines on unemployment eligibility.
New York Times article on Uber being fined by the state of New Jersey
My recent article on New York’s high court determining a Postmates Courier was an employee.
New York Times article expressing concerns about eligibility of gig workers for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance
Department of Labor guidelines on self employment and uninsurance.
