Issues between drivers and Uber in New Zealand
"The Uber Partner Association Facebook group has more than 250 members.
Drivers would be looking to join forces with GoDrive, a trust affiliated with First Union, association chairman, Ben Wilson said.
While a formal strike was unlikely, Wilson said the group would be hiring a lawyer.
Wilson wanted to enter into a "formal process" with Uber. He was unhappy with drivers no longer being required to attain passenger endorsements.
Wilson said changes by Uber were "forced on us in a very arrogant way".
He was talking with drivers about the fare drop, but said drivers were now, at best, working harder for the same pay - which he thought was unfair, given the lack of consultation.
Uber would not comment on the possibility of strikes or an Uber drivers' union. A spokesperson said "the best ways to increase driver-partner earnings is to boost demand for rides"." (http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/79446858/uber-drivers-promise-action-against-falling-fares-and-illegal-practices)
