This time, seven departments jointly issued Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Responsibility of Network Catering Platforms and Effectively Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Takeaway Delivery Workers In this guiding opinion, it contains how to safeguard the interests of takeaway workers.
The first is to protect labor income. The rule requires platforms to establish a reasonable relationship between labor and income. The wages of delivery workers shall not be lower than the local minimum wage, and shall not utilize the strictest algorithm and algorithmic approach. Delivery time limits should be reasonable and appropriately relaxed.
The second is to ensure labor safety. The detailed responsibility requires the platform to improve the distribution mechanism, reduce the delivery intensity of delivery workers, and strengthen the traffic safety awareness training.
Next is food safety. It calls for more food safety training for delivery workers to ensure that food is not contaminated.
Improving social security, urging the platform to sign labor contracts and to participate in social security, hoping that the platform will be able to figure out a variety of protection schemes to improve the level of protection for takeaway delivery workers.
Optimizing the work environment, encouraging the establishment of such places as? The home of the takeaway? and other residencies, to effectively improve the safety and intelligence of the equipment helmets and other equipment for takeaway delivery workers.
Organizational construction, should actively build trade unions, and actively absorb the takeaway workers to join, in the form of trade unions up can be said to suggest the basic requirements to protect the takeaway workers.
Contradictory processing, urge the platform to establish a direct channel to feedback upwards, can let the needs of the delivery staff feedback to the platform in time, and can be solved.
These are just a few of the different aspects of the opinion that protect the rights of delivery workers. These aspects are specific and detailed, and you can see that the General Administration of Market Supervision is really looking out for the general public, including the majority of the food delivery worker community.
If one looks closely at these guidelines, one realizes that there are many issues that we have raised before, such as, ? The safety of delivery workers is not guaranteed and they do not have social security.? The platform's algorithm is too harsh and compresses delivery time for takeaways.? The punishment mechanism for takeaway workers is too strict.? And so on, all reflected in this guidance.
