The settlement stems from a lawsuit the city filed in 2019, which alleged Instacart improperly classified workers as independent contractors.
Around 308,000 people who worked for Instacart between Sept. 13, 2015 and Dec. 15, 2020 are believed to be eligible for restitution payments, the City Attorney's Office said. Individual reimbursements will vary depending on the number of hours each person worked over that time period.
San Diego City Attorney Mara Elliot said in a statement,"It's gratifying to see hardworking Instacart shoppers receive the compensation they deserve. At the height of COVID-19, they provided a lifeline to California families." Assembly Bill 5, introduced by former Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez and later signed into law, expanded the scope of the"ABC test," and set standards that classified many app-based drivers as employees.
