New York City has spent years trying to make sure delivery workers are paid properly. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has also made worker protections a focus of his administration. On Tuesday, his office announced a major agreement with DoorDash.
DoorDash will pay $131.5 million to settle claims it underpaid delivery workers. City officials called it the largest worker settlement in the city’s history. The deal also puts DoorDash under a new monitoring system. That system will check the company’s compliance with the city’s delivery worker pay laws going forward.
