What the f****ng f**k!!! This is your gig economy, people. Wait until the outrage does and then put your lawyers on the vilest case against defenceless workers. What's your blog post going to be about this time @urbancompany_UC ?
🚨🚨EXCLUSIVE. YOU ARE READING IT FIRST HERE. Urban Company has sued women protesting against the company calling the strike “illegal”, in what is perhaps the first such case where a new age Indian tech company has initiated legal action against its own gig workers.
Interesting VLog captures Swiggy Instamart in Mumbai where cops were called to disperse assembled delivery boys as Swiggy couldn't service the orders to them for hours.

@SwiggyCares Please do away with this "connect" form of yours. For a company this big, you ought to have better partner redressal systems in place than a bloody Google form.

Indian gig workers with Urban Company have been protesting against new platform policies this week.📣

I urge folks to uninstall @urbancompany_UC for trying to intimidate workers protesting for their rights. Take a screenshot of uninstalling the app and tweet. Tag Urban Company and use #BoycottUrbanCompany. Please also tag me so I can RT.
Every rider has had suicidal tendencies at some point. Every rider has had at least 1 road accident becos of the job. We've raised our voices to no avail. The protesting women workers of @urbancompany_UC maybe the 1st to succeed. We welcome them!

#Thread Urban Company, an Indian home services provider, is suing its women partners (mostly offering beauty services) who have been protesting for over 2 months against low wages, poor working conditions, & high commissions. There are many reasons to support the workers.
Rapido and shadowfax as companies are basically parasites. There is absolutely no good reason for Zomato and Swiggy to use them. And yet they do. @kaveri_med, I'm sure many workers would like to know why.
My fe I.d 403180 that was Terminated without any reason,pls send my last week payout also send my joining fees that I have paid when I have joined zomato.
