Survey: Quick Delivery Apps Fall Short on Worker Welfare
Some fast delivery apps have warehouses that don't treat their workers well.
A survey looked at these warehouses and found problems like no bathrooms, no clean water, and no places to rest.
Workers also faced issues with parking and sometimes had trouble with the police or their managers.
It means the companies are not taking good care of the people who work for them.
A survey revealed poor working conditions in quick delivery app warehouses in the NCR.
The survey, conducted by the Rajdhani App Workers’ Union, assessed 51 warehouses.
Warehouses lacked basic amenities such as toilets, clean water, and rest areas.
Workers faced issues including lack of parking, police harassment, and abusive management.
The report highlighted violations of workers' rights across multiple quick delivery app companies.
