Amazon India has upgraded health and insurance benefits for 90,000 delivery partners, adding outpatient coverage, hospitalisation support, and compensation for temporary and permanent disabilities. The package also includes higher group personal accident coverage, capped out-of-pocket costs, and mediclaim top-ups. Amazon is also running free health screening camps nationwide and linking the initiative to a 2,800 crore investment.
Amazon India plans to upgrade the delivery partner work experience by setting up 150 new Ashray Centres this year, aiming for 250 by 2026. The rollout begins with 50 centres launching in May, designed with climate-controlled seating and hygienic washrooms. The move signals a shift toward more comfortable and safer rest spaces for gig delivery teams.
