All of the platforms provide some level of insurance and cover. Not all of them make it easy to work out what these are!

We’ve done our best to extract the relevant info and rank the platforms.

🤒 Sickness insurance

🏆 Best - Deliveroo, Stuart

🥄 Worst - Just Eat

Just Eat is alone in not offering protection for non-accident sickness/injury. Stuart and Deliveroo’s policies are very similar (and Uber’s isn’t much worse).

🤕 Accident injury/death insurance

🏆 Best - Deliveroo

🥄 Worst - Just Eat

All of the platforms offer a payout if you are killed or seriously injured while working.

The amounts are pretty similar but they all define when you are covered slightly differently with Deliveroo being the most generous and Just Eat the stingiest.
