Abstract:
Pod utjecajem brzog razvoja digitalnih tehnologija u posljednje vrijeme je došlo do pojave novih oblika fleksibilnog zapošljavanja koje karakterizira snažna ili prevladavajuća podrška informacijske i komunikacijske tehnologije. Online platforma Uber za pružanje usluge gradskog prijevoza putnika jedan je od široj javnosti najpoznatijih predstavnika navedenih promjena u svijetu rada. Imajući u vidu da je pojava Ubera izazvala brojne kontroverze i postavila nove suvremene regulatorne izazove u sferi radnog prava, u radu se problematiziraju glavna radnopravna pitanja i izazovi koji proizlaze iz Uberovog poslovnog modela. U prvom dijelu rada dan je kratki prikaz novih oblika rada nastalih pod utjecajem procesa digitalizacije tržišta rada, s osobitim naglaskom na modelu grupnog zapošljavanja (engl. crowdwork). U drugom dijelu rada autorica analizira poslovni model kojeg koristi platforma Uber. U trećem dijelu detaljno se razmatra problematika klasifikacije vozača Ubera kao radnika ili samozaposlenih osoba, pri čemu se osobito s aspekta hrvatskoga radnog prava nastoji dati odgovor na pitanje jesu li u ugovornom odnosu između Ubera i njegovih vozača – partnera de facto prisutni, i u kojoj mjeri, bitni elementi radnog odnosa. Naposljetku, autorica iznosi zaključna razmatranja te ukazuje na potrebu utvrđivanja jasnog i transparentnog (radno)pravnog okvira, prikladnog za razvoj novih oblika rada nastalih pod utjecajem digitalnih tehnologija.

Abstract:
Uber drivers in India are witnessing a slow emergence of everyday work formalization predominantly through their engagement with the Uber platform. If a vast segment of the informal employment sector in a country resembles gig work, can companies like Uber bring organizational ability and wage regularity to employment? Despite Uber's economic model being challenged on several labor fronts in scholarship from the global North, we argue everyday interactions with the Uber platform are ushering organized work practices and improved financial stability for drivers who formerly hail from the informal employment sector in India. The everyday driving for Uber is filtered through a conceptual and practical work model drivers gain with due experience of Uber's platform features. Our study uncovers the relationship between the controlling demands of the Uber platform and ensuing driver work adaptations. We present findings from a qualitative investigation of Uber ride-hailing services impacting drivers to 1. optimize earnings 2. link work effort to wages 3. converge towards platform compliance. We posit engaged and persistent interactions with the Uber platform bring structure and formality to the profession of driving for Indian Uber drivers.

Abstract:
Recently, Uber released datasets named Uber Movement to the public in support of urban planning and transportation planning. To prevent user privacy issues, Uber aggregates car GPS traces into small areas. After aggregating car GPS traces into small areas, Uber releases free data products that indicate the average travel times of Uber cars between two small areas. The average travel times of Uber cars in the morning peak time periods on weekdays could be used as a proxy for average one-way car-based commuting times. In this study, to demonstrate usefulness of Uber Movement data, we use Uber Movement data as a proxy for commuting time data by which commuters’ average one-way commuting time across Greater Boston can be figured out. We propose a new approach to estimate the average car-based commuting times through combining commuting times from Uber Movement data and commuting flows from travel survey data. To further demonstrate the applicability of the commuting times estimated by Uber movement data, this study further measures the spatial accessibility of jobs by car by aggregating place-to-place commuting times to census tracts. The empirical results further uncover that 1) commuters’ average one-way commuting time is around 20 min across Greater Boston; 2) more than 75% of car-based commuters are likely to have a one-way commuting time of less than 30 min; 3) less than 1% of car-based commuters are likely to have a one-way commuting time of more than 60 min; and 4) the areas suffering a lower level of spatial accessibility of jobs by car are likely to be evenly distributed across Greater Boston.

Abstract:
In 2014, the Asociación Profesional Élite Taxi (Elite Taxi) brought an action before the Juzgado de lo Mercantil No 3 de Barcelona (Commercial Court No. 3, Barcelona, Spain) for the infringement of the national law on taxi services and the carrying out of misleading practices and acts of unfair competition by Uber Systems Spain SL (Uber). The two parties in the main proceedings are Elite Taxi, a taxi drivers' association in Barcelona, and Uber, a company related to Uber Technologies Inc. In the proceedings, Uber argued that its smartphone app constituted only a technical platform and should be regulated as an “information society service,” subject to EU law. However, the court ruled against Uber and found that it was providing a “service in the field of transport,” making the company subject to the potentially more stringent regulations of individual EU member states.

Abstract:
Uber is a new taxi service both in terms of technology - applying GPS-based LBS and method of fee calculation - using international payment cards. Although Uber selects the cheap strategy, provides high-quality service with luxury vehicles. This study proposes the adoption model for Uber taxi. Research results indicate elements, namely knowledge about legal, easy to use, subjective norm, and price value that impact on the adoption intention and usage of Uber taxi in Vietnam. The study results not only provide information for Uber and other taxi suppliers in choosing the appropriate development strategy, but also expropriate the scientific knowledge for the technology adoption theory.

Abstract:
El índice Uber se construye como una aplicación de los aportes que ha desarrollado el enfoque de los estudios del campo de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad, en relación al capitalismo de plataforma. El mencionado índice se elabora a partir del seguimiento de la tarifa del servicio de Uber a nivel global con el objetivo de observar la distribución de la renta entre los choferes de la plataforma en cuestión, según su ubicación geográfica. Los datos relevados en 39 ciudades capitales se comparan con las tarifas del servicio de taxis, entendiendo que estos son valores de referencia para estimar el funcionamiento del capitalismo tradicional. Esta comparación ha permitido observar la estrategia de precio del servicio que está desarrollando Uber y la redistribución de la renta del sector de acuerdo a criterios diferentes a los que operaban en el mercado de taxis sin Uber. Tal afirmación se desprende del dato de que en 36 ciudades el servicio de la plataforma es más barato que el de los taxis. Esta disminución en la tarifa no se condice con una baja de los costos en igual medida. Para una mejor interpretación del índice Uber, se cruzó con el Índice de Desarrollo Humano, y de ello se constata que el capitalismo de plataformas está agrupando ciudades para establecer su estrategia de precios bajos en países de desarrollo medio – alto y alto, erosionando así las condiciones de trabajo de los conductores en donde el capitalismo tradicional de prestación de servicios mediante taxis tenía mejores condiciones de ingresos.

Abstract:
This Master´s Thesis focuses on the sharing economy and more importantly, on one of the main pioneers of this phenomenon, which is Uber. Uber is presented as a typical example when describing possibilities and problems connected with the sharing economy. The thesis is divided into two main parts - the theoretical part and the practical part. The theoretical part deals with theoretical terms that are essential for a better understanding of the second, practical, part. It involves a complex description of the term sharing economy and its main driving force - Millennials (Generation Y). Furthermore, there are described terms such as marketing environmental analysis and marketing mix analysis, which are put into practice and presented on Uber in the latter part of this thesis. This thesis focuses on marketing activities of Uber in the Czech Republic and that also includes a questionnaire survey. The main goal of this thesis is to describe current marketing activities of Uber in the Czech Republic, to present findings about brand awareness of Uber in the Czech Republic and its customer satisfaction and consequently, to make recommendations on possible marketing activities, that could help Uber in the Czech Republic to meet its objectives and/or unfold its potential. The partial objective of this thesis is to put together a complex set of characteristics of the sharing economy.

Abstract:
Uber Technologies Inc. es una empresa que en 2009 nació de una idea innovadora y en los últimos nueve años se ha consolidado como la empresa global referente en el uso de tecnología enfocada en brindar servicios de transporte. Esto, junto con su explosiva expansión geográfica, le ha permitido a Uber consolidarse como líder y, tal como lo indica el caso de estudio, hasta 2018; sin embargo, también ha reportado pérdidas, las cuales se acrecentaron en 2016, en parte por la poca aceptación que tuvo en China. Por esto último, Uber ha sido fuertemente criticada, debido a que pone en evidencia su desconocimiento sobre las normativas locales e, incluso, algunos grupos de interés manifestaron competencia desleal y falta de responsabilidad respecto de la seguridad y la calidad de sus servicios. A pesar de todo esto, los inversionistas aún apuestan por la empresa y la recaudación de fondos sigue en ascenso. Viendo la situación que atraviesa Uber, hemos identificado que el problema principal es la carencia de un gobierno corporativo que brinde un conjunto de principios y normas que le permitan a la empresa prevenir y solucionar las distintas problemáticas identificadas. Esto no le está permitiendo a Uber lograr sus objetivos como empresa y cumplir la estrategia trazada que, como indica el caso, está enfocada en expansión y rentabilidad. El presente trabajo de investigación, basado en los Estados Unidos (EE.UU.), realiza un análisis estratégico utilizando herramientas tales como las cinco fuerzas de Porter para medir el atractivo de la industria, la matriz de evaluación de factores externos (EFE) y la matriz de evaluación de factores internos (EFI) para el análisis externo e interno. La cadena de valor de Porter y el CANVAS nos ayudaron a determinar la propuesta de valor y el modelo de negocio de la empresa. La matriz FODA, PEYEA, IE, GE nos permitieron determinar hacia dónde debería dirigir Uber sus esfuerzos y, finalmente, con la matriz cuantitativa planeación estratégica (MCPE) formulamos las cuatro estrategias presentadas en este plan estratégico, las cuales refuerzan el enfoque de crecimiento basado en estrategias de penetración y el desarrollo de mercados y nuevos productos.

Abstract:
El modelo de negocio de Uber está basado en los principios de “sharing economy” o “economía compartida”. Según la revista Forbes (Marr 2015), la economía compartida es un sistema económico donde se comparten e intercambian bienes y servicios a través de plataformas digitales. Desde sus inicios, Uber segmentó el mercado identificando formas distintas de satisfacer necesidades de los consumidores; precisamente, Uber aumentó su disposición a pagar cuando les ofreció disponibilidad sin importar la hora, las condiciones del clima o el lugar de recorrido, mediante un servicio diferenciado, es decir, único para el cliente en el momento que lo requiere. La aplicación de la tecnología en este nuevo modelo, además de eliminar eslabones e intermediarios, desafiar a la legislación actual y cuestionar la continuidad de algunos oficios o puestos de trabajo, produce un cambio en la estructura de costos del negocio (por ejemplo, se dejan de lado alquileres y reducen considerablemente sus costos de logística y personal, invirtiendo más en innovación). Este aspecto de alguna forma puede significar una desventaja para Uber ya que, al no requerir de mucha infraestructura, se convierte en un modelo de negocio altamente imitable por basarse en una aplicación móvil cuya tecnología es conocida por varios expertos en el mercado.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Det finns statistik som tyder på att det idag är färre människor i Sverige som tar körkort, vilket tros leda till att användandet av taxiverksamheten och kollektivtrafiken kommer att öka, som ett alternativt färdmedel. Digitalisering har i dagens samhälle blivit en större del av människors liv och det har IT-företaget Uber tagit vara på. De har utvecklat en digital plattform där förare kan få kontakt med kunder via en applikation. Uber har en stor mängd förare runt om i världen som styrs genom minimal realkommunikation. Studien kommer att undersöka hur Uber säkerställer kvaliteten på sina tjänster och det kommer att jämföras med andra svenska taxibolag. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur kvalitetsstyrning av taxitjänsten utförs i ett plattformsföretag som Uber jämfört med kvalitets styrningen av andra taxibolag i Sverige. Metod: Studien utgår ifrån en kvalitativ metod med ett deduktivt synsätt samt ett realistiskt perspektiv. Studien omfattar tre respondenter. Insamlad data bearbetades och analyserades med hjälp av tematisk analys för att sedan tolkas. Slutligen drogs slutsatser från resultatet och analysmaterialet. Resultat: Studien visar på att de olika bolagen tycks definiera kvalitet på liknande sätt. De kvalitetsförväntningar kunderna har och de kvalitetskrav som bolagen identifierat tycks vara genomgående i de olika bolagen. Taxibolagen skiljer sig dock åt i arbetet med hur det kontrollerar att förarna tillgodoser den kvalitet som bolagen definierat som viktig. Studien har ven kunnat urskilja att arbetet med kvalitetsstyrning skiljer sig beroende på taxibolagens storlek och vilken marknad de agerar på. Resultatet tyder på att vägen framåt för att tillfredsställa kundernas förväntningar på taxitjänsten verkar vara att satsa på tekniskinnovation. Slutgiltigt kan konstateras att skillnaden i hur taxibolagen arbetar med kvalitet tycks bero på bolagen storlek, inte beroende av bolagens affärsmodell.
Background: There are statistics that point out the fact that less people in Sweden today gets a drivers license. This is believed to lead to an increase in taxi services and public transport. In todays society technical innovation has become a big part of people’s lives and this is something the IT-company Uber has taken advantage of. They have developed a digital platform were drivers and customers can connect with each other trough an application. Uber has a big number of drivers all over the world that is managed by minimal direct communication. The thesis will analyse how Uber ensure the quality of their services and how that comperes to other Swedish taxi companies quality control. Purpose: The purpose of the thesis is to investigate how a platform company like Uber works with quality management compared to how other Swedish taxi companies insure the quality of the service. Methodology: The thesis is based on a qualitative method with a deductive approach and a realistic perspective. The study includes three respondents. The collected data was processed and analysed using thematic analysis and then it was interpreted. Finally, conclusions were drawn from the results and the analysed material. Result: The thesis shows that the various taxi companies seem to define quality in a similar manner. The customer’s expectations of quality and the different companies quality requirements appear to be consistent throughout all of the companies. However, the taxi companies differ in how they ensure that the drivers meet the quality the companies have defined as important. The study has been able to distinguish that quality control differs depending on the taxi companies size and the market in which they operate. The results also suggests that the way to satisfy customers expectations for taxi service today seem to be working with technological innovation. The thesis also shows that the differences in quality work seem to depend on the size of the company, not the business model.

As part of standard business cycles, new technologies continue to emerge that disrupt industries and capture market share from stagnant incumbents. In the trucking industry, Uber for Freight (UFF) is one of these innovative business models. Loosely defined as platforms which seek to more efficiently match shippers' loads with truck drivers, these companies are seeking to 'uberize' freight transport through algorithm-based applications. By eliminating the middleman of a carrier or broker, these startups' value proposition is cost savings and increased efficiency gained through a frictionless interface. While process automation has its upsides, many industry veterans have questioned the potential success of this business model. Furthermore, experts have expressed uncertainty regarding the operational mechanics of an UFF company as well as the true distinction between UFF and a traditional broker. This research seeks to address these questions about the UFF model by first developing a clear description of its players and processes, compiled based on interviews with existing companies in this space. Secondly, this research determines that UFF is best classified as a subdivision of brokers, providing similar services through a different business model that eliminates some degree of human intervention. More than simply automation, UFF provides additional benefits through its rating system and efficient payment processes. As a case study, this research then investigates the applicability of UFF within a specific company. The sponsor company, a large, multinational chemical company, maintains an extensive product offering that reaches customers across almost all industries. These products vary widely in format, hazardous material classification and service level requirements. Based on interviews with sponsor company representatives across functions and geographies, this research examines the challenges and benefits of incorporating UFF into a company's transportation strategy. From these learnings, it was recommended that UFF be implemented gradually, starting on a U.S. lane that transports non-hazardous products with lower service level requirements. If safety and service levels prove satisfactory, the sponsor company can scale accordingly to more complex products or lanes. While UFF has clear benefits and disruptive potential, it must be utilized with the appropriate products and customers; it is not a one-size-fits-all solution.

Abstract:
El creciente mercado de dispositivos conectados a internet ha traído nuevos de modelos de negocio. Gracias a esta mayor conectividad entre usuario-usuario y usuario-proveedor, se ha creado una nueva tendencia llamada economías colaborativas, en la que se hace menos indispensable el intermediario y con ello un ahorro de costos se refleja en el precio final al usuario. Uber nació como una idea de economía colaborativa en el 2009, y desde entonces ha tenido un crecimiento muy rápido; llegaría a los 62,1 millones de usuarios para el 2020. Uber se maneja en distintas geografías a nivel mundial, pero enfocándose en el mercado de Estados Unidos, donde se encuentra su sede central, se pueden observar distintas problemáticas que pueden afectar la sostenibilidad de su modelo de negocio, empezando por los problemas legales con asociaciones de taxistas y problemas de imagen que pueden afectar a la marca. En la presente tesis se busca plantear la estrategia que debe seguir Uber en el mercado norteamericano para los años 2017-2020. Esta estrategia debe tener como principal objetivo garantizar la sostenibilidad de Uber ante la competencia y los problemas mencionados. Los planes funcionales están alineados a lineamientos y objetivos estratégicos, basados en una estrategia competitiva de liderazgo en costos y una estrategia de crecimiento de diversificación concéntrica. El liderazgo en costos se debe realizar buscando la eficiencia operativa y aprovechando su posicionamiento de líder en el segmento de ridesharing, con su producto principal UberX. Por otro lado, para garantizar la sostenibilidad se debe seguir invirtiendo en I+D y en mantener el crecimiento de su red de usuarios.

Abstract:
El presente trabajo de investigación tiene como objetivo la elaboración y formulación de un plan estratégico para Uber, realizando un diagnóstico situacional que nos servirá para proponer y evaluar las directrices con la finalidad de asegurar la sostenibilidad del modelo de negocio. El modelo de negocio de Uber permite conectar en tiempo real a pasajeros que buscan movilizarse de un lugar a otro, con choferes que puedan transportarlos. En pocas palabras, se basa en el uso de una aplicación (app) que proporciona un sistema de concordancia para los pasajeros y choferes mucho más eficiente y simplificado en comparación con los servicios que podría ofrecer una compañía tradicional de taxi o limusinas. Uber se origina de un concepto tan antiguo como el ser humano, la idea de compartir el uso de los bienes, pero que esta vez se ve potenciada por el desarrollo de tecnologías que permiten el intercambio constante de información. Sin embargo, Uber presenta un conjunto de problemas que ponen en riesgo la sostenibilidad de su modelo de negocio, como: poca diversificación y desarrollo de servicios, satisfacción y retención de choferes y pasajeros, carencia de cultura corporativa sólida, ausencia de gobierno corporativo, entre otros. Dentro de lo analizado, se proponen estrategias a nivel corporativo que permitan a la empresa salir adelante y establecer estrategias a nivel funcional necesarias para brindarle sostenibilidad al negocio. En el tiempo en el que el caso fue escrito, nos encontrábamos frente a la mayor red de transporte privado del mundo que estaba innovando constantemente la forma de transporte de las personas y que tenía como premisa hacer el transporte tan económico, cómodo y seguro a fin de ser la mejor alternativa para trasladarse de un punto a otro. Esta investigación culmina hasta esta primera etapa, en la que se recomienda diversificar y desarrollar nuevos productos, gestionar de manera más eficiente la satisfacción de choferes y pasajeros, establecer mejores políticas de gobierno corporativo, implementar y reforzar una cultura corporativa de tipo adaptativa, con la finalidad de buscar la sostenibilidad del modelo de negocio.

Abstract:
The first time I've heard about Uber I was in London, during my Internship. I had to reach a place in East London, but I was living in the opposite part of the city. At night time the tube is not working and by bus it would have taken me about 2 hours to reach my destination. So my colleague suggested me to use Uber, I was totally unaware about this app. I downloaded it on my smarthone, I gave my credit card details and in few minutes through the mobile GPS system, I was able to contact the closest available driver to pick me up from my place and to take me to East London, I reached my destination in 20 minutes, the driver came to pick me up in the right location where I was waiting and took me to the desired place. Before getting on the car I was already aware of the amount of time and money that the journey would have costed me and I received a picture of the driver with its rating given by other customers. This app impressed me for its speedness, reliability, easiness to use and good functioning so I decided to analyze it in deep. I decided to write my dissertation about this incredible innovation that in few years spread all around the major cities in America, Europe and Asia. Its success is mainly due to Internet, IT, GPS system and word of mouth communication; this service, together with other sharing services like Airbnb represents the transfer of power from producers to consumers produced by the digital revolution. The sharing economy is completely changing the environment we are living in, all the sectors are facing a "movement", barriers to entry have been lowered causing a decrease in the power of incumbent firms. This new way of doing business is just re-using already existing assets like cars in Uber case study, so marginal costs are reduced to zero. I will analyze the functioning of this app, its creation and fundation and later on I will focus my study on the regulatory barriers that Uber had to face worldwide and how it dealt with such issues. At the end I would like the reader to have a better understanding of the power of sharing economy and of new digital services.

Abstract:
Uber and Lyft, the “unregulated taxis” that are putting traditional taxi companies out of business, are expanding quickly and changing the landscape of urban transportation as they go. This thesis analyzes the environmental impacts of Transportation Network Companies, particularly in California, with respect to travel behavior, congestion, and fuel efficiency. The analysis suggests that fuel efficient taxis are being replaced by less fuel efficient Uber and Lyft vehicles. Linear regressions were run on data from the Clean Vehicle Rebate Project’s Electric Vehicle Consumer Survey of electric vehicle owners in California. The findings indicate that Uber drivers are more reliant upon the state rebate than the general population of electric vehicle owners in California.

Abstract:
O avançado processo de urbanização e desenvolvimento tecnológico possibilita a busca por novas formas de avaliar a qualidade de vida no meio urbano. Pesquisas na área e que utilizam a Uber como fonte de dados apontam que o tempo de espera do serviço pode se relacionar com características socioeconômicas das cidades. A fim de se testar a hipótese de que a precificação da Uber relaciona-se às características socioeconômicas dos lugares de embarque do serviço, este trabalho realiza um estudo para a cidade de Natal no Rio Grande do Norte e que representa uma área do Nordeste em que há uma demanda reprimida por transporte público de qualidade. Para atender esse objetivo, foram coletados dados de preços dos serviços do Uber X para essa localidade durante todo o ano de 2018, além de dados socioeconômicos agregados a nível de Unidades de Desenvolvimento Humano (UDH) fornecidos pelo Atlas do Desenvolvimento Humano no Brasil. Como metodologia, empregou-se técnicas de aprendizagem de máquina para a criação de modelos de regressão orientados à dados. Análises de regressão sobre esses modelos revelaram que as características socioeconômicas da cidade de Natal se relacionam com os dados de preço do Uber X.

Abstract:
As transit ridership continues to fall in many cities across the globe, key policy debates continue around whether Uber and other ride-hailing services are contributing to this trend. This research explores the effects of the introduction of ride-hailing to Colombian cities on public transportation ridership using Ubers timeline as case study. We test the hypothesis that ride-hailing may either substitute or compete with public transit, particularly in cities with large transit service gaps in coverage or quality. Our analysis builds on historic transit ridership data from national authorities and uses a staggered difference-in-difference model that accounts for fixed effects, seasonality, socioeconomic controls, and the presence of integrated transport systems. Despite large reductions in transit ridership in most cities, our results suggest that Uber is not statistically associated with the observed drop in ridership. Moreover, consistent with evidence from previous research, public transit reforms implemented between 2007 and 2015 throughout Colombian cities appear to have contributed substantially to the declines in transit ridership observed across the country. Findings in this paper inform policy-targeted insights and contribute to current debates of the links between ride-hailing and public transit in cities in Latin America.
