Australia Sets "World Leading" Minimum Pay and Insurance Rules for Gig Delivery Workers The Fair Work Commission (FWC) has issued a landmark ruling that sets minimum pay and insurance standards for food and grocery delivery workers in Australia.
This decision effectively raises the bar for companies like Uber Eats and DoorDash, requiring them to treat their workers with respect.
The new rules will benefit approximately 250,000 workers who have been largely excluded from workplace protections due to their classification as independent contractors.
