Labor laws say you can't declare the drivers to be corporate entities. Presumably because employers would use that as a way to circumvent employment law.
Uber explicitly lets you drive under an EIN/LLC. If you want to IC it you can as well.
You ( not you you but you hypothetical driver) may consider yourself as an employee but it would be if your own company, or self employed. Not Uber's employee except in a few jurisdictions. If you want employee protections by all means drive under your LLC for Uber and declare yourself an employee of your contracted self owned LLC... It sounds doable but IANAL.
