The takeaway was unfortunately killed in the typhoon. Should be able to work normally in bad weather?

On August 19, 10 super typhoon "Lichima" swept through Shanghai, making it the strongest in recent years. The storm brought by the typhoon has turned parts of Shanghai into Wang Yang, which is also frightening.

Around August 10, 2 1, an electric shock takeaway food delivery clerk was admitted to the emergency room of the Sixth People's Hospital. But the delivery man has no vital signs. It is said that it is caused by the leakage of battery cars in rainy days.

The unfortunate death of a takeaway on a typhoon day reminds people of a social problem: should it work normally in bad weather?

You may say that bad weather should not work normally. But if the company won't let you go, it will force you to go to work.

First, the take-away platform requires mandatory delivery, and heavy penalties are imposed for taking time off or not taking orders.

During the investigation, the reporter found that there were forced delivery behaviors at many sites in Shanghai, such as Hungry. For the sake of life, the takeaway brother has no choice. If the weather is bad, you will be fined several hundred yuan by your boss if you ask for leave or don't take orders.

Moreover, there are regulations on the platform, and the penalty for not taking orders is 1000 yuan.

Under pressure, the takeaway brother had a hard time and had to bite the bullet and deliver food in the wind and rain.

Second, it is illegal to ask the food delivery staff to deliver food in bad weather.

According to a legal scholar who specializes in labor relations, it is illegal for the platform or boss to force the food delivery staff to deliver food in bad weather.

Prior to this incident, on August 7th, the Shanghai Municipal Government issued the "Implementation Opinions on the Arrangements for Suspension of Classes and Handling of Missing Work in Response to Extreme Weather in this Municipality", which clearly stated: If missing work is caused by the red warning of meteorological disasters, the employer shall not treat it as being late or absent from work, deduct wages and benefits, and make compensation on legal holidays and rest days, and shall not give disciplinary punishment or terminate labor relations to absentees.

Therefore, the takeaway brother has the right to complain to the relevant departments. This government announcement also applies to other outdoor workers. Relevant outdoor workers can defend their rights according to law.
