MAJOR PAY CHANGES FOR UBER EATS DRIVERS START MONDAY 17 AUGUST 2026

From Monday, new minimum pay protections will come into effect for eligible Uber Eats and other food and grocery delivery drivers across Australia.

Under the new Fair Work Commission standards, drivers will be entitled to a minimum earnings floor for their engaged delivery time—the period from accepting an order until completing the delivery.

The new minimum rates are:

• Bicycle and e-bike riders: $31.30 per hour
• Motorbike riders: $31.80 per hour
• Car drivers: $32.00 per hour

If a driver’s eligible earnings fall below the applicable minimum rate during the earnings period, the platform will be required to pay a top-up amount to make up the difference.

The changes also introduce additional protections, including platform-funded personal accident insurance, clearer dispute-resolution procedures and the ability for certain disputes to be referred to the Fair Work Commission.

With the earning potential for Uber Eats delivery work now improving, a deactivated account could result in an even greater loss of income and future earning opportunities.

If your Uber Eats delivery account has been deactivated, blocked or permanently restricted, now may be an excellent time to consider appealing the decision and seeking to regain access to the platform.

We assist Uber Eats drivers throughout Australia with professionally prepared deactivation appeals, formal submissions and Tribunal matters. Payment plans are available.

To discuss your deactivation and find out what options may be available, please send our page a private message.

Recent Trends and Precedents When Appealing an Account Deactivation

While victory is not a guarantee, recent tribunal rulings show that drivers have a much stronger fighting chance than they did in previous years:

Crackdown on Automated "Sackings": In cases like Ayyub v Portier Pacific (Uber Eats), the FWC ruled that relying solely on automated algorithm metrics (like unexplained customer thumbs-down ratings) to disconnect a worker is "illogical and arbitrary" and requires genuine human judgment.

Unverified Customer Accusations: The FWC has heavily criticised Uber for permanently banning long-term drivers based on unverified, anonymous passenger complaints without giving the driver a fair chance to respond.

Back-Pay Remedies: In landmark rulings (such as the Hotak case), the tribunal ordered Uber not only to reactivate the driver's account but also to pay for the earnings lost during the deactivation window.

Hey guys another successful result for our New Zealand drivers. So far under the new system the success results have been very high for reactivations. When lodging an appeal in New Zealand it's common to go to mediation before a hearing and that's where the issues are getting resolved.

Positive Results for New Zealand Drivers

Deactivated drivers in New Zealand are leveraging Personal Grievance claims to fight unfair deactivations, though the legal landscape remains complex and highly contested.

Following the historic November 2025 Supreme Court ruling (Rasier Operations BV v E Tū Incorporated), the court unanimously confirmed that Uber drivers are employees, not independent contractors, while logged into the app. This landmark ruling explicitly unlocked the right for drivers to access the Personal Grievance (PG) framework under the Employment Relations Act 2000.

Drivers who challenge their deactivations generally see two types of positive outcomes:

Reinstatement: Because Uber traditionally deactivates accounts instantly without a fair investigation, the Employment Relations Authority (ERA) or Employment Court can rule the dismissal procedurally unfair and order Uber to turn the app back on.

Financial Compensation: Drivers have successfully won lost wages (for the time they were blocked from working) and compensation for emotional stress and humiliation

Why appealing an account deactivation Now has a high chance of Success

Uber drivers are successfully appealing account deactivations because new workplace laws grant them unfair dismissal-style protections, and tribunals are rejecting Uber's reliance on unverified passenger complaints.
The primary reasons driving this surge in successful tribunal appeals include:

New "Employee-Like" Legal Protections

Insufficient Evidence from Uber
Unsubstantiated Allegations: Uber frequently deactivates accounts based entirely on written customer complaints.
Hearsay Rejected: Tribunals give "short shrift" to written passenger accounts if the complainants do not show up to give under-oath testimony.

Lack of Cross-Examination: Because passengers rarely appear at hearings, Uber is often unable to prove the misconduct actually occurred when challenged by a driver's denial.

Credibility and Past Performance
Excellent History: Tribunals heavily weigh a driver’s long-term record, often siding with drivers who have thousands of trips and near-perfect ratings.

Proactive Defences: Drivers who immediately report unruly or abusive passengers to the police or Uber support establish a credible timeline that disproves later, retaliatory customer claims
