If you want to assess whether full-time work is right for you, we recommend keeping track of the following for at least several consecutive weeks: each payment received, actual delivery times, fuel costs, parking fees, vehicle maintenance, insurance, taxes, and days off. Payment details and order times are the most important source data; the Ministry of Labor also recommends that delivery riders keep records of orders and payments to verify their entitlements.
Any comparison of income should specify the region, time period, and cost range; one should not treat a peak month for a small number of people as a fixed monthly salary.
