SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13, 2019
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Postmates announced it will be unveiling an occupational accident insurance benefit this Fall to all members of its Fleet in an effort to provide coverage for medical expenses, disability, and other costs resulting from a covered injury on an active delivery. Continuing its history of investing in the long-term upward mobility of its national fleet of 350,000 gig workers, Postmates also announced access to platforms providing expanded health & wellness coverage and catalogues of online & offline courses through which the Fleet can obtain certificates on topics ranging from cybersecurity & data science to language skills & coding.
All resources for the fleet will now be hosted and accessed through a newly created Postmates Flexible Toolkit, a one-stop portal connecting gig workers to resources and partnerships that help them invest in their long-term economic certainty on or off the platform.
Having pioneered the first formal vehicle for meaningful worker-input in on-demand delivery through the launch of a Fleet Advisory Board, Postmates has also cultivated feedback from thousands of gig workers across the country through a blend of in-person summits and surveys to understand what benefits workers most value right now. We've learned that:
Parallel with Postmates' call for legislative reforms to build a new safety net for gig workers, today's announcements helps establish a new class of worker protections across pillars of financial certainty, career mobility, and health & wellness.
"These new benefits are just the beginning," said Postmates co-founder & CEO, Bastian Lehmann. "But we won't be satisfied until all Postmates — and all gig workers across the sector — have the protections and opportunities they deserve. We're going to keep working with our fleet members, other companies, labor unions, and policymakers to make that bigger, bolder deal for gig workers a reality. This journey starts now."
In the last year, while legislative bodies across the country debate the future of the gig economy, Postmates has lead the on-demand sector in pioneering new worker benefits models to test how best to balance worker benefits with worker flexibility.
The future of work looks different than it did a decade ago, but in a world where data is king, Postmates considers worker input the most important data of all. Which is why the creation of a Fleet Advisory Board has been imperative to elevate gig voices within Postmates headquarters, and has lead to:
"In the modern gig-economy where workers exercise unprecedented autonomy to decide if, when, for how long, and for whom they work, it is incumbent on tech, labor, workers' rights groups & government to forge a new social compact that provides flexible app workers with appropriate work injury protections, healthcare, and civil rights," said Vikrum Aiyer, Vice President of Public Policy & Strategic Communications at Postmates. "While states like California must swiftly move to enact policies that are both pro-worker & pro-innovation, there are steps we as an industry can and must take to elevate the standards of the gig economy."
