Accesoriu sau integrat în activitatea angajatorului: cazul Uber
Ancillary or integrated into the employer's activity: Uber case

Summary/Abstract: The Uber case is fascinating and, at the same time, controversial. One of the oldest and most popular mobile transport apps, Uber was born from a simple idea: what would it be like to be able to order a ride in a city (a taxi) using your mobile phone? The idea proved to be brilliant, with many mobile transport or home delivery apps (as foodpanda or Glovo) being used by millions of users today. Attracted by the mirage of seemingly easy earnings and the flexibility of the work schedule, those who work using these mobile apps have found, over time, that their independence is not entirely real and do not benefit from protection rules, although the profit of their work does not belong to them. In these circumstances, the courts analysed the legal nature of the employment relationship between them and the platform that manages the mobile application from a different perspective: that of integration into the activity organized by another person.
