Hey there, Pune peeps! Swiggy, the go-to on-demand convenience platform in India, recently teamed up with the Pune Traffic Police to host a Road Safety Awareness Session for their delivery partners in the city. The aim? To ensure safer driving habits and promote adherence to traffic regulations among the 130 delivery partners who participated.
Led by Pune Traffic Police officials, including DCP Amol Zende and Senior PI Sunil Gawali, the session focused on the importance of reducing risky behaviors through better planning of delivery routes and times. With the increasing number of road accidents and fatalities in India, initiatives like this are crucial to ensure the safety of delivery partners who play a key role in Swiggy’s business.
This isn’t the first time Swiggy has taken steps to prioritize the safety of their delivery fleet. From partnering with Gurugram Traffic Police for a similar workshop last year to providing insurance coverage for all delivery partners, the company is committed to creating a safe working environment for everyone involved.
In a groundbreaking move back in 2023, Swiggy even joined forces with Dial 4242 to offer on-demand ambulance services to delivery partners in case of emergencies. And let’s not forget about their Emergency Support Services, which include a 24/7 hotline, emergency cards, and a direct link to local police and ambulance services via the delivery partner app.
At Swiggy, safety is a top priority. That’s why all delivery partners undergo a safety guidance module during onboarding, and the platform regularly conducts safety campaigns to provide ongoing support and guidance. Kudos to Swiggy for taking proactive steps to ensure the well-being of their delivery partners and the wider community. Stay safe out there on the roads, Pune!
