Deliveroo Launches Free Childcare and Educational Courses For Riders
Deliveroo is offering its riders free childcare and access to various educational courses.
In collaboration with the childcare app Bubble, the delivery giant aims to provide 15 hours of free childcare to 1,000 riders.
It will enhance the flexibility of Deliveroo’s work model.
The company said a recent survey of its riders in the UK and Ireland found that most with caring responsibilities would benefit from childcare support.
Bubble CEO Ari Last said: “We’re really proud to be working with Deliveroo on this partnership which recognises the vital importance of care to a large proportion of riders.
“We are thrilled to help riders be better able to work flexibly and efficiently; plus we know the benefits of offering this type of support has a hugely positive impact on wellbeing and fulfilment.”
Deliveroo has joined forces with Lynx Educate to offer riders educational courses, from business management and coding to project management and photography.
