While some restaurants offer their own delivery services, people are also turning to delivery apps to enjoy a meal from local restaurants in the safety of their own homes.  Shanti LeBlanc, a delivery driver and massage therapy student, says that she finds work fits into her life with ease because she is able to choose her schedule. LeBlanc is aware of the risk she’s taken on during the pandemic.

Uber Canada s push for gig workers to get benefits facing critiques

The Canadian Press Uber Canada’s new proposal for provinces to force the tech giant and other mobile application-based companies to offer gig workers some benefits is facing pushback from advocacy groups and employment lawyers, with some saying the plan will still leave gig workers paid less than minimum wage and without job security. The company unveiled its pitch, called Flexible Work+, on March 10, which asks provinces to require app-based gig employers to accrue self-directed benefit funds that can be dispersed to drivers for prescriptions, dental and vision care, as well as provide safety training and tools like reflective vests. Currently, Uber’s gig workers are classified as independent contractors so the organization isn’t required to give them benefits or a minimum wage as other employees would receive under provincial laws.
