Our environmental, social, and governance approach
We envision a future that is more sustainable, equitable, and profitable—not just for us, but also for those who rely on our platform for opportunity. As a global company, we are constantly evaluating risks and opportunities both internal and external. We recognize that various environmental, social, and governance factors can affect our business, and we understand the impact our business can have on society and our stakeholders. By working to align our material ESG priorities with the interests of our business and stakeholders, we aim to apply the appropriate governance, engagement, and thoughtfulness to our approach, which we believe helps enable us to protect and deliver economic value and continual long-term growth.

Driver and courier well-being
Drivers and couriers overwhelmingly choose platform work because they value the flexibility to work when, where, and how they want, as reflected in various surveys conducted across multiple markets.
We continue to advocate for quality platform work that provides independent platform workers with flexibility, fair and transparent earning opportunities, access to social protection and benefits, meaningful representation, and learning and development opportunities.
Environmental sustainability and climate change
Uber is working toward a more sustainable future because it’s the right thing to do for our business, the people who use our platform, the cities in which we operate, and the communities we serve.
The pace of our progress is influenced by many external factors, most importantly action from policymakers and the wider auto industry. When we set our 2025 climate goals, we anticipated that strong regulatory measures, alongside sustained industry-wide investment, would help support our efforts. Progress has been made, but unfortunately, without more aggressive action, we cannot achieve all of our 2025 goals. Despite these challenges, we continue to work tirelessly towards our goal of becoming a zero-emission platform by 2040.
Both the public and private sectors need to act with more urgency, and we’ll continue to advocate for stronger action from policymakers and automakers.
We will continue to be transparent about our progress through our annual Environmental, Social, and Governance Report and our periodic Climate Assessment and Performance Report.
People and culture
Es fundamental que atraigamos y mantengamos a un grupo diverso de personas que estén motivadas e inspiradas por nuestra misión. Buscamos personas con iniciativa que estén interesadas en mejorar la funcionalidad de nuestra plataforma a nivel mundial. Entendemos que no seremos la opción ideal para todos, por lo que nos comprometemos a ser abiertos y honestos acerca de quiénes somos y lo que es trabajar en Uber.
Recopilamos información de los empleados para comprender qué es lo más importante para ellos y por qué se quedan y desarrollan una carrera aquí. Aprovechamos esta información para afinar nuestros objetivos y estrategia y, como resultado, nos enfocamos en seis necesidades distintas de los empleados: orgullo, pertenencia y equidad, crecimiento, remuneración, bienestar y confianza. Este plan de capital humano garantiza que podamos brindar una experiencia atractiva, equitativa e inclusiva en cada una de estas áreas cruciales, al tomar en cuenta las necesidades de nuestra diversa fuerza laboral.
Civil Rights Assessment
Our goal is to help ensure that people can move freely, equitably, and safely. In support of that goal, and following engagement with shareholders, Uber has undergone a Civil Rights Assessment. The assessment was conducted by Covington & Burling, under the direction of former US Attorney General Eric Holder. It was designed to evaluate our impact on rideshare drivers, communities, and employees in the US, with the intent to promote civil rights and identify areas where we can continue to improve as an equitable and inclusive platform.
Gobierno
Nuestra Junta Directiva está comprometida con la mejor gestión corporativa de su clase y cree firmemente que debemos mostrar transparencia y responsabilidad a los accionistas con respecto a nuestra cultura, administración y responsabilidad corporativa. Reforzamos y creamos una Junta Directiva con una amplia combinación de antecedentes, habilidades y experiencias como parte de nuestro impulso para crear una estructura de administración de empresa pública de clase mundial.
Los problemas ambientales, sociales y de gobernanza (Environmental, Social, and Governance, ESG por sus siglas en inglés) que se identificaron en nuestra evaluación de materialidad son importantes para el éxito a largo plazo de nuestro negocio y estrategia empresarial. Como tales, y según corresponda, se supervisan por la Junta directiva de Uber y los Comités independientes de auditoría, compensación, designación y administración de la Junta.
