First US ride-share union advances gig worker rights and labor standards | This action directly advances workers' rights by enabling gig economy drivers to collectively negotiate for fair wages and conditions, aligning with SDG 8 (Decent Work) and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities). It also upholds UDHR Article 23 (right to form and join trade unions) and ILO core labor standards, representing a significant milestone for labor rights in the gig economy.
