The Foundation for Consumers' Rights Protection has urged the Labour Ministry to issue regulations to support the welfare rights of food delivery drivers, to provide them with insurance against the risk of road accidents.
Narumon Mekborisut, head of the foundation, yesterday said the food delivery service has seen a rising number of orders placed via apps which has led to a substantial growth in jobs for riders employed by domestic and international platforms, such as Grab, Lineman and Foodpanda.
