Twitter for iPhone : Being a deliverista in NYC is tough & essential work. We’ve legalized e-bikes & as we continue to advocate for improved working conditions, we are looking out for their safety with a bike registration & helmet giveaway today with Consulado General de México en Nueva York! Look out for an event #SeenIn13.

Twitter for iPhone : “Delivery workers now move faster than just about anything else in the city... They know they go too fast, but it’s a calculated risk. Slowing down means being punished by the apps.”
Incredible reporting on the deliveristas’ comradeship & organizing.

Twitter for iPhone : HAPPENING NOW. I’m joined by my colleagues NYC Council Member Carlina Rivera Justin Brannan & Gale A. Brewer Shahana Hanif for City Council 🦾 Shekar Krishnan to stand with #deliveristas. A new Cornell report finds app delivery workers experience harsh consequences of an unregulated industry all while apps profit. BASTA!
Shekar Krishnan
Twitter for iPhone : Our city’s #deliveristas are essential workers. The industry report released today captures in detail what we know and see each day: their working conditions are oppressive. We will fight by their side until their basic rights are protected.
