As Glovo is in the process of hiring its first delivery staff, the details of the contract have been disclosed.
According to El Periodico, the pilot programme, which involves 20 drivers, involves part-time contracts, 30 hours a week, with a salary based on the latest national collective agreement for delivery services from 2006. This means that they are effectively paid the minimum wage.
Glovo vetoes the idea that drivers can work for another application during the same hours as they deliver for it, and that if they want to do this outside working hours, they must inform it first.
In terms of equipment, workers must use their personal mobile phones, which must be active and geolocalisable at all times during the working day, and the company compensates them with a payment of five euros per month. Glovo undertakes to provide an electric motorcycle and, if this is not possible, the worker can contribute an "electric skateboard, bicycle, electric bike, or motorcycle". As compensation, the company will pay them 0.19 euros per kilometre.
