The new protections put New York at the forefront of regulating the massive food delivery industry dominated by companies such as Grubhub, Doordash and Uber Eats.
The package of legislation includes measures to establish minimum payments, require food delivery apps to provide insulated food bags for free and make gratuity payments more transparent, according to a council press statement ahead of the vote.
The new protections also require restaurants to make their restrooms available to delivery drivers and allow drivers to set boundaries on their routes, such as setting maximum distances per trip or noting they don't want to ride over bridges and tunnels.
“I’m proud of New York City and this Council for standing up for these workers, and I urge other major cities to protect this industry," he added.
