Last Updated: August 23, 2026| The Act on the Protection of Delivery Workers’ Rights and the Regulation of Food Delivery Platforms took effect on July 21, 2026. Any previous articles that described the system as “soon to be implemented” or as merely under legislative discussion are no longer applicable.
The law addresses matters such as contracts, base pay, job assignments, account suspensions and appeals, insurance, and safety training; however, details regarding individual platforms’ apps, rates, workload, or account requirements must still be confirmed through official notifications received by the individual and cannot be inferred from the law itself.
