DoorDash Inc. will begin to offer its delivery workers an hourly wage option, according to an announcement from the company on Wednesday.
The food delivery service will now allow delivery workers — or “dashers” — to pick between earning a guaranteed hourly minimum rate for time spent on a delivery, or earning per job they take. The latter was previously the only option.
