Here is why food delivery drivers in Dubai have stopped work

Wage cuts and grueling working conditions have led to a rare protest and strike among workers in Dubai in the food delivery sector for 3 days. For a second time in a month food delivery workers refused to report to their jobs.

Delivery drivers in Dubai are under-paid immigrant workers and are typically employed via agencies, who reportedly charge them for their working permits, which is illegal as per UAE law.

The strike disrupted services of Talabat, a subsidiary of Germany's DeliveryHero in Dubai in a rate show of protest. Last week another delivery service provider Deliveroo halted plans to cut wages of drivers in Dubai after workers went on strike in protest of pay and working conditions.Public protests, industrial action and trade unions are banned in the Gulf State.
