New York Expands Minimum Wage Rules
New York City, which became the first city in America to pass a minimum wage rate for app-based restaurant delivery drivers in 2023, is now expanding these rules to grocery couriers.
Following the initial implementation, several other cities have adopted similar policies, resulting in issues such as rising delivery costs and a significant number of drivers leaving the workforce.
The New York City Council has passed new bills aimed at protecting grocery delivery drivers, including requirements for delivery apps to offer a 10-percent tipping option and to pay drivers within seven days of the end of a pay period.
The city is doubling down on minimum wage rules, and this time it's for grocery delivery drivers.
The legislative package introduces new rules for app-based platforms, affecting how they operate and compensate their drivers.
