Lyn says he had picked up some grocery orders for Foodora in recent weeks, but never medication. While Foodora couriers can decline orders with no penalty, their access to shifts is determined in part by how active they are on the app. Foodora, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, is now offering contactless delivery as an “option” for customers. Now, confronted with a pandemic, couriers are “coming in and out of buildings and coming up with their own safety precautions,” said Liisa Schofield, an organizer with CUPW. For now, Lyn wants to see Foodora take responsibility for couriers’ safety.
