A minimum hourly wage law for delivery workers in New York City has increased their pay, but not all workers are benefiting. While the hourly pay has gone up, delivery apps have implemented policies that limit the number of hours workers can log in and work, making it difficult for them to generate sufficient income.

Advocates are calling for further measures to protect delivery workers and ensure a living wage. [Extracted from the article]
