New York City is expanding minimum wage rules to grocery couriers after facing issues with restaurant delivery drivers.
In 2023, the city introduced a minimum wage rate for app-based restaurant delivery drivers, resulting in rising delivery costs and a decline in drivers.
The new rules require delivery apps to include a 10-percent tipping option and mandate payment to drivers within seven days of the end of a pay period.
The city is doubling down on minimum wage rules, this time for grocery delivery drivers.
