CEO Explains Zomato’s Monthly 5,000 Gig Worker Layoffs

Zomato sacks nearly 5,000 gig workers monthly due to fraud, while 150,000-200,000 leave voluntarily, CEO Deepinder Goyal said. Many see gig work as temporary. Amid New Year strikes for better wages and conditions, the government’s draft labour rules aim to provide gig workers social security, minimum wages, and safety benefits based on engagement days.
