Loco News Bureau : Marking 15 years of operations in India, Delhivery (NSE: DELHIVERY) and (BSE: DELHIVERY) today announced the launch of "Vishram centers", a network of 1,000+ rest facilities for delivery associates. The open-access rest facilities are designed to support the well-being of all delivery personnel across the country regardless of which platform, organization or sector they happen to be working with.

 

• Delhivery's 'Vishram' rest facilities are accessible to delivery associates and gig workers working across any logistics, e-commerce or hyperlocal delivery company.
• Vishram Centers are Live in 600 cities and towns.

 

"Delivery associates are the backbone of this industry and have to routinely navigate demanding physical conditions such as weather, traffic and poor quality road infrastructure. Our 'Vishram' centers are aimed to become more than just a physical shelter - they represent a hard-earned pause, comfort, and dignity for India’s mobile workforce,” said Prashant Gazipur, Chief Operating Officer, Operations at Delhivery.

 

Each of the 1,000+ Vishram centers is fully operational, designed to offer relief during demanding shifts and safe shelter during heavy rains, harsh weather, and late-night delivery hours. All Delivery associates will be able to access seating, air coolers or cooling fans, clean washrooms and safe drinking water and take a break between delivery runs.

 

Recognizing the on-the-go requirements of modern delivery work, the Vishram centers also ensure that associates remain digitally connected and physically safe. Each rest stop is outfitted with multiple mobile charging ports to keep devices charged on the go, alongside a fully stocked first-aid kit to handle minor injuries or medical emergencies immediately. Additionally, Delhivery will soon enable an ‘Ask for Help’ button on its app for delivery associates to quickly request on-road assistance for medical emergencies or mechanical support for their vehicles.

 

To ensure a seamless, hassle-free experience, Delhivery has digitized the entire check-in and check-out process. Riders can check in instantly by scanning a QR code and entering their phone number on their mobile device, completing a simple matching scan-out when they leave. This streamlined, paperless system ensures rapid access while helping Delhivery maintain safety, manage hub occupancy, and ensure high standards of hygiene.

 

“By opening our network of over 1,000 Vishram Centers to all delivery partners, regardless of platform, we aim to establish a higher standard for gig worker welfare. We believe industry-wide collaboration is critical to protect this vital workforce, and we invite fellow sector leaders to join us in fostering a safer, more sustainable ecosystem,” Gazipur added.
