Delivery workers

Ou Zhou has hit it big selling fast, low-cost electric bikes and mopeds to delivery workers, transforming New York City streets in the process. But can his empire survive?

Company CEO Mike Peregudov sits down with Streetsblog to talk about his industry and why putting license plates on e-bikes is a non-starter.

An app industry-supported group is trying to sway the conversation around expanding the delivery worker minimum wage.

Council members fail to address the e-bike registration bill's potential harmful outcomes.

Grocery delivery app companies like Instacart currently do not have to pay their workers the deliverista minimum wage.

"The goal should be to increase e-bike usage and to make sure battery charging and storage is done outside of dangerous areas," one charging advocate said.

Recently arrived immigrants from Africa are turning to Instacart with few other options for work.

New data from New York City's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection shows minimum wage is bringing order to a previously wild industry.

App delivery companies seek to block worker-led improvements by spending big money on political influence, leveraging their data, and even co-opting progressive language, argues a new report that lands days before a national one-day strike by app-workers.
