Uber Technologies, Inc. on Wednesday said it will require drivers, delivery workers and riders globally to wear a mask as countries around the world begin easing restrictions aimed at curbing the spread of the coronavirus.
Beginning on Monday, the company will require everyone using its ride-hailing service in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe and most Latin American and Asian countries to wear some form of face covering and ask passengers to sit in the back.
The company will also lower the number of passengers allowed on its standard Uber rides to three from four. Uber will release updates to its driver and rider app to inform users about the changes, executives said during a call with journalists on Wednesday.
