economy. The report „Emerging technologies and the future of work in
India‟ published by the International Labour Organisation in 2018
states that the upside to the lack of a clearly defined labour status in
the gig economy is that it offers an opportunity to rearrange
informality by increasing job security through standardization of
payment, enabling access to the formal banking system and opening
up opportunities for training and skilling.

Methodology to the research.

In order to collect sample data for our baseline survey, we conducted


personal interviews. Our field survey was based across the region of
Delhi-NCR and was conducted over a period of one month. The basic
protocol we developed was for the survey team to meet with the
delivery partners when they first arrived in each location, explain the
research, describe the surveys, and obtain permission to proceed with
the structured interview. The questionnaire for the survey data was
prepared using existing literature on food aggregator business and was
finalised after three rounds of pilot surveys. In total, 158 delivery
persons 1 were interviewed in the following areas- Rajouri Garden,
Karol Bagh, Connaught Place, Ghaziabad, GTB Nagar, Sonepat,
Green Park, Dwarka, Subhash Nagar, and Gurgaon.

Respondent Profiles

Sumit Kumar is a thirty years old delivery partner working for Zomato. He
belongs to the OBC category and has studied till High School. He recently
migrated to Delhi and before joining Zomato, he was self-employed as a
farmer. Owing to less remuneration from farming, he decided to migrate. His
family-of-five continue to stay in their hometown in Madhya Pradesh. He plans
to continue working for Zomato in the immediate future.

On the other hand, twenty-one years old Chand recently started working for
Swiggy (worked for 15 days by then). He has a family business where they
make and sell bangles. He joined the platform to serve as an additional source
of Income. Currently, he is pursuing Intermediate and wants to complete
graduation. Tracing the path of one of his relatives, he wishes to learn German
and work abroad.

Figure 10 depicts that 66 % of the delivery persons who were enrolled


part-time did not have any other job. Some workers opted for part-
time, not to pursue other obligations on their side but to have more
flexibility in work hours, as mentioned earlier. However, opting for
part-time work instead of full-time impacts their incentive structure,
since full time work has better incentive structure compared to part-
time for them. Also, in our research we found out that 60 % of the
respondents work 7 days in a week.

In our survey, a few delivery partners shared that sometimes, when


they are about to reach their incentive target, the platforms stop
assigning them orders. Hence they end up waiting for an order for 2-3
hours beyond their shift duration.

Figure 10

A 24 year delivery partner reported not getting any orders once his work reached the delivered amount of Rs. 960, to get
incentive he had to reach 1000. As a result he ended up investing more time on work to get the incentive amount of Rs 250,
which eventually went in vain.
School of Public Policy and Governance 13

Income:

The source of income in this job is a combination of wages earned on


piece rate basis, and incentives earned over and above it. Table 4
depicts that there isn‟t much difference in the average net income of
delivery partners whether working full-time or part-time. Even the
range of income doesn‟t vary much. One important reason behind this
is that the workers enrolled part-time continue to work beyond their
official time of 5 hours.

Table 4

Category Average Net Minimum Maximum


Income (Rs.) Income (Rs.) Income (Rs.)
Full-Time 15500 3000 35500
Part-Time 14647 2800 34000
Figure 11

Figure 11 and 12 shows the proportion of delivery partners under


different levels of income earned, working full-time and part-time
respectively.
Majority of the respondents (53%), working full-time, earn more than
Rs. 15000 (their mean income is Rs. 15500) and 34% are earning
between Rs. 20000- 35000. In the case of workers enrolled part-time,
more than half (57%) of the respondents earn less than Rs. 15000
(their mean income is Rs. 14647).

For the delivery persons working in Zomato, the company provides


24*7 helpline and a team leader to resolve the issues faced by them
during work. For Swiggy, the responses we got were mixed about the
interaction with the field manager to resolve their issues. Swiggy,
unlike Zomato, does not provide a 24*7 helpline for delivery persons.

A 26 year old delivery partner with Swiggy informed us about unsafe areas identified
across Delhi – such as Paharganj, Shakti Nagar, etc,
where incidents of theft often take place. He says he was in one such situation where he was threatened
with physical assault. Being unable to
get any help from the Field Manager, his call was diverted to Customer Care,
which was of no help. He ended up losing his phone and cash.
School of Public Policy and Governance 15

Social Security benefit:

The rush to deliver food on time increases the risk of road accidents, as
experienced by multiple delivery partners interviewed. While these
food delivery apps list insurance as one of the benefits, these workers
are for the most part, unaware of the modalities of accessing insurance.
The impact of this can be seen from figure 15 below with only 1 out of

working in the same line lost his life on-duty. While driving
hurriedly to deliver food on time on a rainy day, his motor-cycle
slipped on the road, and as he skid next to a live wire, he died
from an electric shock. His family could not claim medical
insurance due to the grief of such a young death and the hassle of
making the claims.

Figure 15

One interviewee reported a fatal accident where he fractured his arm; he tried to contact his
Field Manager, who did not respond. Having paid for the medical expenses incurred all by
himself at the nearest hospital he was taken to, his claim for medical insurance went unfulfilled
despite months-long attempt. His arm took more than a month to heal, further restricting
him from working.
School of Public Policy and Governance 16

Understanding Exit Reason for exit:

Average duration in work:

The survey findings show that the largest proportion of delivery


partners have been engaged in the work for a period between 1 to 6
months only, Figure 16 below. Of the total respondents, only four have
been engaged for over 2 years, three of them being from Swiggy and
one from Shadowfax. It may be noted that online food delivery
business has been in operation for the last 4 years.

Figure 17

On being asked if they plan to continue this work or not, the delivery
partners‟ responses are almost split between „Yes‟ (41.9%) and „No‟
(45%), as demonstrated in Figure 17. While some of the workers
answering in the affirmative are satisfied with the job, others opt to
stay due to lack of alternative employment opportunities and do not
see the gig work as a lifelong source of earning. Meanwhile, those who
do not plan to stay see it as a junction in their career. The below two
responses roughly sum up majority of the responses of delivery

partners on being further probed over their responses.

“I’m looking for an office job so that I can sit and work. In this job, I have to be on the move all day long,” says Kishan,
who has been working as a delivery partner with Swiggy for over a year now. Meanwhile, Bunty who has been working
with Swiggy for 6 months tells, “I’m not planning to leave as of now, as I have to earn for my family… but it is clearly not a
job to do for a lifetime.”

Table 3 above shows the total responses along with the respondents‟
duration in the work. The data does not cover workers that have
already left the work, and since the respondents‟ answers may differ
from their future course of action, the findings thus arrived upon may
not fully represent the reality on the ground. Nevertheless, the findings
of this survey do coincide with other existing studies that point
towards high attrition rate in the gig economy.
