UPDATE: @Instacart has launched Classroom Carts to support Los Angeles schools affected by the recent wildfires. Those interested in participating can donate much-needed supplies to dozens of impacted schools and help students return to class. instacart.com/donate
Today we’re launching Classroom Carts to help dozens of LA schools affected by the fires. Donate much-needed supplies at instacart.com/donate
Additionally, the report found that more than 196,000 California restaurants, grocers and merchants used app-based delivery platforms in 2023. The report also found that merchants earned $12.9 billion in revenue, with each business averaging $65,826 in 2023.
The report also found that, on average, nearly 70% of app-based drivers worked fewer than 5 hours per week, and more than 92% of drivers worked fewer than 20 hours a week. Independent app-based work continues to be a vital source of supplemental income for Californians.
BREAKING: A new report has found that California app-based drivers earned $37.40 per hour on average in 2023. The report also found that 1.6 million Californians worked with app-based platforms, earning a total of nearly $10 billion. #ProtectAppWork #Prop22 bit.ly/3CBuxAr
We’ve barely just launched Community Carts on Instacart and we are already delivering thousands of bags of groceries and daily essentials to emergency centers in LA. One of the leaders of a YMCA we work with was watching the cars pull up and said “omg, what are these magical cars showing up with food we need so much of!” - magic indeed. And the number of bags is growing by the minute, with many orders in excess of $1000+. In the middle of this tragedy, we’re really witnessing the best of humanity. And we’re just getting started. Thank you to everyone who is jumping on to help LA; you can donate the exact items these centers asked us for and desperately need here: instacart.com/donate

App-based driver Al Porche in @sdutOpinion: “Part of what I love about app-based driving is that I’m an independent contractor, meaning I get to choose when I want to work, how often I want to work, and for how long I want to work.” #Prop22Protected bit.ly/4g35Fk4
🎉 The California Supreme Court upheld #Prop22, ensuring that 1.4 million app-based drivers can continue working with the flexibility they need! This is a major win for the millions of consumers in CA who enjoy the sharing economy. sg.news.yahoo.com/california-sup…
"This ruling is not just a win for the nearly 1.4 million drivers who rely on the flexibility of app-based work to make ends meet, but for millions of consumers and thousands of businesses...” said PADS. “The courts have spoken, and this issue can finally be put to rest.”
On Thursday, the court released its decision upholding Proposition 22, a 2020 law approved by voters that exempted app-based drivers from being considered employees under state law. bizjournals.com/sacramento/new…
“As an app-based driver, [the] ruling is a huge sigh of relief and a win for California,” said Stephanie Whitfield, an Instacart shopper. “For years, special interests have been trying to take away our ability to remain independent contractors, despite voters overwhelmingly approving the law…” #Prop22Upheld
The #California Supreme Court upheld #Prop22, the voter initiative that allows gig economy companies to classify drivers for their #delivery services as independent contractors rather than as employees: ow.ly/RHMm50SMBNp 🚗
The CA Supreme Court unanimously upheld #Prop22, protecting the will of voters and preserving the ability of app-based drivers to work independently. The decision is a huge win for our state’s democracy and drivers who want to remain independent. bit.ly/3WL1NN3
Egor S., a student & driver, on the importance of app-based work: “While I’m looking for a full-time job, DoorDash really supports my life. It pays very good money for living.” With #Prop22 being upheld, Egor can continue to work as an independent contractor.
