No notification of inability to work
I drive for Uber. This morning I was required to input my SSN for an annual background check with no previous notification that this would be taking place. Now that this background check is running, I am told it can take 7-15ish business days for a return answer to be able to get back on the road. Basically, I’m asking the legalities of not being notified that I will not be able to work for up to 2 weeks.

As an "at will" worker, you can be taken off the schedule for any reason or no reason at all, with or without notice. This is true unless you have an employment contract to the contrary. Bottom line, you have no claim here.
