Gig Workers Urged to Use Hawk Eye Safety App

A workers’ union in Hyderabad has started a safety campaign for gig workers.

Gig workers include drivers, delivery workers and people who provide services at customers’ homes.

These workers often travel for long hours and visit places they do not know well.

The union is asking them to use an app called Hawk Eye.

The app can send an SOS message during an emergency.

It can also share the worker’s location with friends, relatives and police authorities.

Workers can use it to report crimes or violations and find safety-related police services.

The union wants workers to learn how the app works and use it when they need help.
