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.

The only one I’d change is the 10% tip should be named as a fee.

I think our tipping culture is okay but I’d like us to move to calling them delivery fees so we can keep the idea of the tip as a pure bonus between me and those serving me.

I don’t like feeling like I am required to tip but I like tipping. Especially when not expected but socially accepted.

What will happen is that we will end up having 10% fee with 10% mandatory tip.

Because there will be a certain group of people who shame others to tip.

Good point. I’m interested in starting tip-shame shaming movement. Hope you’ll join when we realign incentives. Cheers.
