New data from Uber adds to the growing concern that Seattle’s two app-based worker laws are harming couriers rather than helping them.

UberEats has reported a 30% decrease in order volumes in Seattle since the city’s App-Based Worker Minimum Payment Ordinance and the App-Based Worker Paid Sick and Safe Time Ordinance went into effect on Jan. 13.

This aligns with Doordash’s latest data showing that in just over two weeks since the pay regulations launched, consumers have placed 30,000 fewer orders on the DoorDash Marketplace.
