The strike of application delivery for better working conditions should be closed on Wednesday (2). The stoppages took place throughout Brazil and were started last Monday (31).
According to representatives of the category, the stoppage aimed to draw attention to the “precarious” of the service, dealing with issues such as excessive workload, operating cost and lack of readjustment of remuneration.
In São Paulo, epicenter of the protests, Monday morning was marked by a motocyte that departed from the nearby stadium of Paulista Avenue.
In Rio de Janeiro, the second demonstration resulted in the arrest of 12 people, accused of involvement in violent acts and from preventing other deliveries from working.
The Brazilian Association of Mobility and Technology (AMOBITEC), which represents companies such as 99, IFood and Uber, reported that “respects the right to demonstrate and informs that their associated companies maintain continuous dialogue channels with delivery.”
The entity says that, “according to the latest survey of the Brazilian Center for Analysis and Planning (Cebrap), the average income of a delivery man grew 5% above inflation between 2023 and 2024, reaching R $ 31.33 per hour worked”.
“AMOBITEC’s associated companies support the regulation of digital platforms intermediated by digital platforms, aiming at ensuring social protection of workers and activities of activities. In addition, they work within business models that seek to balance the demands of delivery, which generate income with applications, and the economic situation of users, who seek accessible ways to use delivery services,” says the association.
