Extreme summer heat, rising absenteeism, and productivity loss have led to a high demand for last-mile delivery and warehouse personnel in India. About 2,000 delivery personnel are dropping off daily in quick commerce and 5,000 in food delivery, with an estimated 2.1-2.2 lakh people needed for replacement hiring daily. The monthly attrition of riders, warehouse staff, pickers, packers, and loaders is at a high of 30-40%.
