SAN FRANCISCO, California (AFP) — Nearly 6,000 sexual assaults, including more than 450 cases of rape, were reported to Uber in the United States in 2017 and 2018, the ridesharing company said Thursday, as it faces increasing pressure over its response to abuse complaints.
The safety report, which details reports of attacks on both passengers and drivers, is the first time Uber has publicly disclosed the figures.
It also revealed 19 fatal assaults related to the company over the two-year period.
The report classified sexual assaults ranging from “non-consensual sexual penetration” to unwanted kissing or touching and showed that the total number of reported assaults rose in 2018 in three of the five categories.
But the firm said the frequency of attacks dropped 16 percent due to the increase in overall passengers.
