DoorDash will pay almost seventeen million dollars to New York delivery workers due to a past wage dispute.
The Attorney General called DoorDash's previous pay model fundamentally unfair, noting that customer tips subsidized wages.
Between 2017 and 2019, DoorDash's system improperly used tips to lower its own payment obligations.
This settlement requires DoorDash to fully pay tips and improve transparency in its compensation practices going forward.
