A California labor board has ruled that drivers for the ride-sharing service Uber are employees, not independent contractors -- a decision that could have major implications for the global startup.

In the ruling earlier this month by the state's labor commission, Uber was ordered to reimburse one of its drivers, Barbara Ann Berwick, more than $4,000 for employee expenses.

The ruling has been appealed in court and would only impact Uber drivers in California.

But if the case ends up applying to Uber's global operations, it could potentially take away one of the underpinnings of its business model, which considers drivers independent contractors.

The commission's order was included in the appeal filed by Uber in California Superior Court in San Francisco.
