Kochi opens dedicated wellness hub for gig workers in food delivery and ride-hailing sectors
A new centre in Kochi offers gig workers safe rest spaces and basic welfare amenities as the sector continues to expand rapidly.
A dedicated wellness hub for gig workers has been inaugurated in Kochi, providing essential rest facilities and basic welfare amenities to those employed in food delivery, e-commerce and ride-hailing services.
The centre is intended to address the everyday needs of workers who typically spend long hours on the road with little access to adequate rest or sanitation facilities. It marks a growing recognition of the welfare challenges faced by those in the platform-based gig economy.
The initiative reflects broader efforts to improve conditions for a workforce that has expanded significantly in recent years but has historically operated without the protections afforded to formal employees.
