Scoring Justice in the Gig Economy: Fairwork US Ratings 2025
The latest Fairwork United States report offers a detailed evaluation of working conditions across the country’s dynamic platform economy. Covering 13 platforms in rideshare, delivery, care, and warehouse sectors, the 2025 ratings apply Fairwork’s five principles of decent work to assess how platforms measure up.
While some platforms have taken steps toward improved pay and dispute resolution, the majority failed to meet basic standards for fair conditions and representation. The report draws attention to persistent gaps in worker protections—especially among vulnerable populations—and highlights emerging risks in sectors like care and warehousing.
With new insights from workers across major US cities, this report calls for stronger accountability and regulatory action to ensure platform work is safe, fair, and dignified.
Explore the full report below to see where platforms stand—and what still needs to change.
