"Amendments to the Delivery Worker Laws go into effect on Jan. 26, 2026,"
"We expect your company to be in full compliance on that date. ... We will be closely monitoring for violations of law and will take follow-up action as warranted."
"No longer will we tolerate corporate mistreatment of workers across these five boroughs, which is why we have sent warning letters to 60 app companies warning them that new laws protecting workers will take effect on Jan. 26 of this year, and that those laws will be enforced,"
Mayor Mamdani's administration warned more than 60 delivery app companies that new delivery worker law amendments go into effect on Jan. 26, 2026. Department of Consumer and Worker Protection Commissioner Sam Levine wrote the companies to expect full compliance and warned of monitoring and follow-up enforcement. The rules extend the restaurant-app minimum pay standard to grocery apps like Instacart and allow workers to set maximum distances between restaurants and customers to reduce pressure to accept far orders. The mayor pledged vigorous enforcement at a press conference at the Worker's Justice Project in Williamsburg, home to Los Deliveristas Unidos.
