Reporter accepted a job as a bicycle messenger: “Terrible time pressure”



[ad_1]

– We had heard how stressful it is to be a bike messenger in Foodora, but no one dared to stand up and say it, says Dan Ivarsson.

Instead, he himself went into Foodora’s office in Malmö and applied for a job as a bicycle courier. For four weeks he delivered food at a dizzying rate. During one of the sessions, he completed a marathon on a bicycle. In pouring rain.

– You’re under terrible time pressure, you have an app that monitors exactly where you are and also keeps track of the time all the time, says Dan Ivarsson.

– If you don’t pedal fast enough, you run the risk of losing your job.

Many have responded Sydsvenskan Review which was published this weekend.

– Most of the people who have heard us say that they have not had a clue about the working conditions of bicycle bidders.

Foodora: “Very unfortunate”

The company also says that it is surprised by the prevailing working conditions at Foodora in Malmö.

– Of course, I see every dissatisfied employee as a setback, says John Denbratt, logistics manager at Foodora Sweden.

According to John Denbratt, the company will now designate an investigation to resolve the working conditions in Malmö.

How do you comment on the pressure and stress that the Sydsvenskan reporter testifies to?

If it’s the case that you’ve received the feedback that you need to take a faster step to keep the job, then it’s deeply regrettable, says John Denbratt.
