Food delivery platform foodpanda Philippines said it is allocating about P20 million for rider safety measures and additional earnings support during the rainy season. foodpanda said it monitors regional weather advisories and road conditions and automatically pauses operations or restricts delivery zones when severe weather or flooding poses a safety risk. “Our priority during severe weather is to equip riders with the right information and complete autonomy to decide when it is safe to be on the road. The company said its year-round rider safety program also covers defensive driving, emergency preparedness and safe riding practices during adverse weather. foodpanda urged customers to expect longer delivery times during bad weather, keep their contact information updated and remain available for messages from riders.
