Description

During the COVID-19 crisis, Foodora instructed their riders to source the necessary protective equipment themselves and promised that riders could claim up to €12 back. Workers criticised the decision and argued that, due to supply shortages of masks and disinfectants, they faced additional health threats and difficulties. They also argued thatthe company should have provided the equipment.
