Uber is once again appealing a London court ruling that would force it to give its employees benefits and pay them minimum wage.
Let's back up a bit: In 2016, the London Employment Tribunal ruled in favor of two former Uber drivers who argued they should have be treated like full time employees.
Uber argued its workers are technically self-employed and more like contractors. It said it acts as an agent to help drivers find work, so it shouldn't have to shell out holiday pay and minimum wage.
But the tribunal found Uber was instead operating as a transportation business with employees that are considered workers under U.K. law.
Uber appealed the ruling but lost. After losing that appeal, the company said, "The main reason why drivers use Uber is because they value the freedom to choose if, when and where they drive."
It attempted to bring the case to the U.K. Supreme Court in 2017 but was shot down. Which brings us to now. The court of appeal will hear Uber's case over Tuesday and Wednesday.
If Uber loses this appeal, it can still appeal to the Supreme Court.
