Require food delivery companies to employ their couriers and provide insurance, training and compulsory safety equipment eg lights, helmet and high visibility clothing. Plus employment rights for couriers. Dis-incentivise fast food companies from using people who are working illegally.

We think this could result in many benefits: Safer working. Fewer people working illegally in this sector. Make the work a more attractive and safer proposition for young people. Drive up the price of junk food and as a consequence help to reduce the incidence of obesity and associated health issues. Provide better accountability within this sector and so reduce the number of couriers who could be using food delivery as a cover for drug dealing.
