New York CNN —New York City on Sunday announced a new minimum pay-rate for app food delivery workers amid a rise in use of services like Uber Eats and DoorDash since the pandemic. The city says delivery apps will have flexibility in how they pay delivery workers the new minimum rate. “Our delivery workers have consistently delivered for us — now, we are delivering for them,” New York City Mayor Eric Adams said in a statement. Delivery workers also struggled to find spaces when it rained or access to restrooms. “People view delivery workers as dirty, smelly and taking up too much space,” said Joshua Wood, a member of Workers Justice Project told CNN in May.

☆ Some delivery workers biked 50 miles in the thick of the NYC wildfire smog: 'It's an ominous feeling'
  + stars: | 2023-06-09 | by ( Rebecca Picciotto | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Wood bikes an average of 40 to 50 miles a day shepherding food and other products to people's doorsteps. The next day, he woke up and did another full day of work outside, despite the city's record-setting poor air quality and a noticeable toll on his lungs. You have to be willing to work in the weather conditions that nobody else wants to work in," Wood says. Delivery workers are among the many kinds of jobs that require outdoor labor. Construction workers, landscapers and highway maintenance laborers, for example, have to spend the majority of their day outside, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

☆ How on-demand delivery services hobbled America's biggest city
  + stars: | 2023-05-05 | by ( Nathaniel Meyersohn | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +9 min
But even the largest city in the country isn’t designed to handle the rise of online ordering and the influx of delivery workers. The way New York City handles these issues will shape the response in other major cities. “People view delivery workers as dirty, smelly and taking up too much space,” said Wood, a member of Workers Justice Project, an advocacy group for delivery workers in New York City. The growing dependency on e-bikes has been driven by demands on delivery workers, including faster delivery and bigger areas to cover. “But delivery workers are on the front lines of this and it’s even more necessary for them.”
