Restaurants and food aggregators like Zomato and Swiggy in Haryana will have to ensure home delivery of food latest by 8 pm so that no delivery boy is left out on roads after enforcement of curfew at 9 pm.
The measure is the part of an elaborate standard operating procedure issued by the Haryana Government on Wednesday, detailing the manner of functioning for hotels, restaurants, shops and other business establishments in the state.
“The delivery boys shall wear gloves and masks during home delivery. Also, no signature or thumb impression of customers shall be taken by them while delivering items. Preferably online electronic mode of payment shall be ensured to avoid contact and to maintain social distancing,” said the statement, detailing SOPs.“The upper time limit for operation of kitchens will be 8 pm and home delivery, by all means, will have to be completed by 8.30 pm to ensure that no delivery boy will be out on roads beyond 9 pm,” it added.
