Show Notes

Food delivery riders in Edinburgh face severe challenges, including violence and theft, prompting the Workers’ Observatory to propose a support hub in the city center. This hub would provide rest, shelter, charging stations, and toilets, aiming to enhance safety for gig workers. Incidents often occur in the city center, as mapped by a data expert at Edinburgh University. Dr. Cailean Gallagher emphasizes the importance of data-driven support to build the hub, with a local Labour councillor already advocating for it.
