Hi,
Good eye opener, am sure we need to bring in more awarness about the same to many people who would like to enjoy food at home and also talk to the concerened restaura about such wrong promotions that they make.
Circulate the e-mail to many of those who are not Cite Hr Members and bring in the awareness.

Yes.
We should not allow the youth of this country to risk their lives for delivering pizza on time. They have definitely better things and better cause for which they could risk their lives.
One thing is do not ask for home delivery of pizzas. And, if some people do, then thinking they are smart they should not (happily) make complaint to the pizza shop if there is late delivery, and try to take the pizza free. Let them remember the free pizza is the blood of the delivery boy.
Thanks, Swastik, for briging this matter to the attention of many.

We ordered Pizzas from Dominos a few weeks ago, and the delivery boy was late. He told us our Pizzas will be free.

I asked him who pays for this pizza. I also told him that if he has to pay from it from his pocket, I dont want a free pizza, and I will not complain to his management. But he told me that the company pays for any free pizzas. It only affects his performance appraisal. Later on this delivery boy became good friends with us at the office (we are a bunch of young guys and the delivery boy is a college graduate and almost our age), and we confirmed what he had told earlier, that dominos does not cut the amount from his salary. So I am sure he wasnt speaking out of the fear that I might complain him to management if he did tell me anything against his management.

I also confirmed the fact with other pizza delivery boys who have come to deliver pizzas to my office from various pizza restaurants (dominos, pizza hut, smokin joes etc), and each one has told me that no amount is deducted from their salary for free pizzas due to late delivery.

Is any one from the food industry present in this forum? Lets get a clarification on this issue as my research on this topic tells me a different story than what is portrayed in this thread.

Moreover, atleast in Ahmedabad, 30 minutes is a long enough period of time for anyone to deliver pizzas in a radius of 5-7 kms, even in peak traffic periods. Ideally it should not take more than 20 minutes.

The real reason why the delivery boys are in such a rush, is because the faster they get back, the more orders they can deliver, and hence the higher the amount of tips they can earn. Its almost like the rickshaw driver, really. I am not from the food industry, but I think we are getting oversensitive about this issue, when its not really the industry fault.

Please talk at length with the next delivery boy who comes to your home/office, and you'll know the reality... and its not exactly the same as you think it is.

Dear Phalgun,
I would be delighted if the thread is proved false.
I want to bring to your notice two thiongs:
1) I am not against Pizza delivered at home, but I am against the deduction of salary from delivery boy for late delivery( I have said it in my last post). The whole incident was brought out by The Times of India, in their suppliment Calcutta Times. While taking employee surveys for both internal and external, I have come across many people who are ashamed or afraid to speak out the truth. Still, I will be very happy, if what I have read is proved false.
2) You have also said:
Do you really feel that the working system should be such that a person would have to sacrifice his/her safety to earn more? Is this ethical???

Dear Ramya,
This is a prima facie case of UTP (Unfair Trade Practices) and misleading advertisement. You can sue the Company in Consumer Court and ask for compensation.
I take the opportunity once again to say that I am not against Pizza Companies or their delivery system, but all I wish is that we as responsible citizens should not entertainment practices which are unfair and unethical and encourages unsafe working practices.
