you receive WAY more protection than an uber driver (even with these rules) - federal law (and probably state?) dictate a whole host of reasons that employees may not be fired for, and there are an army of attorneys who will happily (and are legally empowered to) sue your [former] employer in an actual court (not arbitration), and what's more they'll almost always work on contingency.

Why else would uber be so desparate to prevent their drivers from being classified as employees?
