In addition to setting up a $4.4 million fund, Uber has also agreed to be monitored by a former agency commissioner for three years to ensure that it changes its practices. Finally, it vowed to implement a system that would allow it to identify employees who've been the subject of more than one harassment complaint, as well as to identify managers who fail to respond quickly to harassment complaints from its personnel.

As The New York Times notes, Uber is still under investigation by other federal agencies due to various other reasons that led to the departure of former company chief Travis Kalanick. The Department of Justice, for one, is still looking into the ride-hailing firm's "Greyball" tool, which blocked regulators' accounts from seeing rides in locations where Uber operated without permission.

All female employees who worked at Uber from January 1st, 2014 to June 30th, 2019 will be receiving notices from a claims administrator. They'll be able to submit a claim to the commission by responding to the questionnaire they receive.
