SC seeks response of Centre, Uber, Zomato on plea for social security benefits for unorganised sector workers

Jaisingh said a declaration is sought by the drivers or delivery workers that they are workmen under the schemes of the Unorganised Workers Act and all the social welfare schemes, meant for the workers body. The benefits for workmen of unorganised sectors be made available to them as well, she said. She referred to a judgment of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom and said the job contracts were analyzed and found that the persons employed with Uber were actually workmen.
