Delivering More Flexibility and Choice for Dashers

Gen Z Dashers – those ages 18 to 25 years old – recognize the value of earning on their own schedule, when and where they want.  As Gen Z continues to join the workforce, they are known to be determined in their pursuit of a job that works for them, often switching employers until they have found the right fit.

Gen Z Dashers Value the Flexibility and Reliability of Dashing on Their Own Schedule 

We recently launched several new safety features including SafeDash™ Check-In to give Dashers greater peace of mind while dashing, Real-Time Safety Alerts to help keep Dashers out of harm’s way, and making it easier than ever for Dashers to report a safety incident. These initiatives build on the measures we have already put in place, including free occupational accident insurance for Dashers and our in-app safety toolkit, SafeDash™.

Announcing the next phase in the Dasher Rewards Program

Yesterday, California voters approved Proposition 22. This victory belongs to the tens of thousands of Dashers and small businesses who advocated so forcefully for this campaign, as well as the customers and the communities we serve. Californians embraced a new, progressive approach to the future of work that provides certainty, economic security, and continuity for the millions of Californians who look to DoorDash to earn supplemental income. And just as importantly, it creates a framework that allows us to double down on our commitment to empowering local California economies. For the first time, DoorDash is able to provide historic new protections to workers in California as soon as the provisions of Prop 22 take effect.

Prop 22 Victory Is a Clear Win for Dashers, Merchants, and Customers. Here’s What Happens Next.

In August, we announced that we would be implementing a new pay model to better serve Dashers and consumers alike. As part of our announcement, we pledged that on average Dashers would earn more money from DoorDash and more money overall under our new pay model – and that we would be holding ourselves accountable to that pledge. We began rolling out the new pay model to Dashers in September. As of October 1, all Dashers had been transitioned to the new pay model, so we now have a complete month of data and feedback from Dashers to help us assess what’s going well and where we can improve.
