Here are their demands: https://medium.com/@GigWorkersCollective/instacart-emergency...

- Safety precautions at no cost to workers — PPE (at minimum hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes/sprays and soap).

- Hazard pay — an extra $5 per order and defaulting the in-app tip amount to at least 10% of the order total.

- An extension and expansion of pay for workers impacted by COVID-19 — anyone who has a doctor’s note for either a preexisting condition that’s a known risk factor or requiring a self-quarantine.

- The deadline to qualify for these benefits must be extended beyond April 8th.

As a customer who really appreciates these services in these times, I think these demands are super reasonable. I recently tried to give a tip to an Amazon carryout person, but they said they couldn't take it.

Completely reasonable. I got an Instacart order yesterday, and paid 15% tip. That worked out to about $2 per item on average. I think that if I can't afford to pay an extra ~25% for my groceries then I have no business ordering them.
