In a move intended to increase rider safety, Uber has partnered with two companies, Appriss and Checkr, to monitor driver background checks continuously. The program has been in place for two weeks and has already led to the firing of 25 drivers, Axios reports.

Uber's partners handle two sides of the equation separately: Checkr provides the driver background checks while Appriss continually monitors safety records.
