From toxic skies to health hazards: Rest of World measured air quality for riders in Lahore, New Delhi, and Dhaka. The results were devastating.
Pollution is worsening in South Asia’s major cities, but few occupations face more risk than gig riders. Many have no options for alternate work, and receive little help from employers. we spoke to 25 gig workers in Lahore, New Delhi, and Dhaka, all of whom reported symptoms that health experts believe are the consequence of routine exposure to carcinogenic pollutants.
Listen to our reporting to find out just how poisonous the air has become.
Written by Zuha Siddiqui, Samriddhi Sakunia and Faisal Mahmud. Narrated by Mithila Phadke.
