Liu Qiangdong speaks out on the issue of rider welfare
On March 21, JD.com founder Liu Qiangdong said in his WeChat Moments that last year was the most fulfilling time in his 20 years of entrepreneurship, because more than 1,200 couriers retired and could withdraw hundreds of thousands of yuan in housing provident funds at one time, with full coverage of pensions and medical insurance. Liu Qiangdong also said, "The knowledge, business models, and technical algorithms we have learned should not be used to exploit the brothers at the bottom of society! Our profits, market value, and wealth should not be built on the insecure lives of the lower-class people!" He called on all couriers and riders to receive five insurances and one housing fund, because the profits and market value of several major platforms in China today can fully support it.
