Uber is enhancing its US driver background check process in response to numerous sexual assault lawsuits and a recent $8.5 million settlement. The updated policy will disqualify drivers with a wider range of criminal convictions, including violent felonies and child abuse offenses, even if they occurred more than seven years ago. While most drivers with disqualifying convictions will be removed, a narrow exception allows long-standing drivers with non-sexual felony convictions older than 15 years to continue, impacting approximately 2,000 individuals.
