Uber improves conditions for British drivers, adds tips

Uber said it had held meetings and spoken to thousands of them as part of its attempts to improve conditions for its more than 50,000 drivers.

LONDON: Taxi app Uber will improve conditions for its British drivers with changes including in-app tipping, after criticism from lawmakers and unions for not giving them more rights.

Drivers for Uber, food courier Deliveroo and other apps tend to work for a number of firms without a fixed contract in what has become known as the "gig economy".
