☆ Massachusetts takes Uber and Lyft to trial over status of gig workers
  + stars: | 2024-05-13 | by ( ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
Uber and Lyft are set to face trial on Monday in a US lawsuit by Massachusetts’ attorney general alleging the ride-share companies misclassified their drivers as independent contractors rather than more costly employees. Uber (UBER) and Lyft (LYFT) argue that they properly classified the drivers, saying they are not transportation companies that employ drivers but technology companies whose apps facilitate connections between drivers and potential riders. The lawsuit going to trial was filed in 2020 by Campbell’s predecessor, Maura Healey, now the state’s Democratic governor. Should the state prevail, it has said the companies could face large penalties for not properly classifying their drivers. By not classifying their Massachusetts drivers as employees, Uber and Lyft avoided paying $266.4 million into workers’ compensation, unemployment insurance and paid family medical leave over 10 years, according to a report by the state auditor.

☆ A bridge under construction in India's Bihar state has collapsed -- for the second time
  + stars: | 2023-06-06 | by ( Rhea Mogul | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +1 min
CNN —A four-lane concrete bridge being built across the River Ganges in the east Indian state of Bihar has collapsed for the second time in just over a year, once again raising questions about the quality of its construction. The Sultanganj Bridge has collapsed twice since construction began in 2017, the first time in April last year before Sunday’s catastrophic failure. It’s not clear why the bridge collapsed last year or if those problems had been rectified. Crowds of people on the river bank can be seen filming the bridge and shouting as it tumbles down. The Sultanganj Bridge is not the only one to have collapsed in India in the last year.
