  • Ride-hailing companies Ola and Uber, and logistics startup Porter scored zero in Fairwork India's ratings for gig worker conditions.
  • The 'Fairwork India Ratings 2024' evaluated 11 digital platforms on principles like fair pay and fair contracts.
  • BigBasket, Swiggy, Zomato, and Urban Company were the top scorers with six points each out of a maximum of 10.
  • The report highlighted that none of the platforms pay minimum wages for a decent standard of living.
  • This comes amid growing debates about gig worker conditions and efforts by governments to safeguard their interests.
