New national standards limit food delivery riders’ working hours and require mandatory breaks.
Why is today’s food delivery so slow? I’m really hungry.
Maybe the delivery rider is taking a break. The new rules say they have to stop for twenty minutes after working continuously for four hours.
Why is that? Don’t they want to deliver faster?
It’s for safety. If they get too tired, it can be dangerous—just like how we need to rest after walking for a long time.
Oh, then how long do they work each day?
Usually no more than eight hours, and platforms aren’t allowed to force overtime through incentives.
I see. Then it’s okay if we wait a bit—let the delivery guy have a rest.
That’s right. Caring about others is also a small kind of kindness.
