Uber Eats to Revise Bundled Order Calculation, New System Takes Effect on August 17.

Uber Eats has recently been involved in a controversy over its stacking order calculation method, which has sparked widespread discussion in society. The company issued a statement today, announcing that it will adjust the stacking order compensation calculation method to adopt a "time overlap repeated counting" approach. This adjustment is expected to take effect on August 17 and Uber Eats will pay the difference in compensation to delivery personnel prior to the end of August.

In Uber Eats' stacking order calculation issue, delivery personnel used to be compensated based on a single order's compensation when accepting multiple orders. However, this calculation method has been disputed in practice. Many delivery personnel believe that this method will unfairly affect their income. As a result, Uber Eats has decided to adjust the stacking order calculation method to "time overlap repeated counting," meaning that the time for each order will be counted repeatedly into compensation when delivery personnel accept multiple orders.

According to Uber Eats' statement, the purpose of this adjustment is to achieve a more fair calculation of delivery personnel's income. Additionally, Uber Eats announced that this adjustment will take effect on August 17 and the company will pay the difference in compensation to delivery personnel prior to the end of August. This means that Uber Eats will bear the income lost by delivery personnel due to the old stacking order calculation method.

This adjustment may significantly impact delivery personnel. Many delivery personnel work on the Uber Eats platform, and their income depends on the number and time of orders. The old stacking order calculation method may have resulted in delivery personnel's income being meager, so this adjustment may improve their working conditions.

However, this adjustment may also affect Uber Eats' operations. The company needs to pay the difference in compensation to delivery personnel, which may increase costs. Simultaneously, this adjustment may affect Uber Eats' competitiveness, as other delivery platforms may take similar measures to attract delivery personnel.

Uber Eats' adjustment has also received external reactions. Many consumers have criticized the old stacking order calculation method and welcomed the adjustment. However, some consumers are concerned that this adjustment may lead to an increase in delivery personnel's service fees. Uber Eats stated that the company will pay the difference in compensation to delivery personnel prior to the end of August, so this adjustment may not have a significant impact on consumers.

In the issue of Uber Eats' stacking order calculation, the government has also issued a statement. Premier Chen Chien-jen stated that the government will closely monitor the impact of this adjustment and consider whether it is necessary to adjust related policies. The Ministry of Transportation stated that it will communicate with Uber Eats to understand the specific arrangements for this adjustment.

This adjustment is a critical turning point for Uber Eats. The company needs to maintain stable operations while ensuring that delivery personnel's income will not be damaged. Simultaneously, this adjustment may affect other delivery platforms, and it is unclear whether other platforms will follow Uber Eats' lead.
