An urgent parliamentary proposal calling for a comprehensive study into Bahrain’s fast-growing delivery driver sector is set to be debated during tomorrow's Parliament session.
The motion, submitted by five MPs led by Strategic Thinking Bloc spokesman MP Khalid Saleh Bu Onk, urges the government to assess the labour market’s actual need for delivery drivers and introduce regulations to better organise the activity.
The proposal highlights the rapid expansion of delivery services in Bahrain driven by e-commerce and mobile applications.
However, MPs warn that the surge in the number of delivery drivers may have exceeded real market demand, creating economic and regulatory challenges.
The proposal calls on the government to conduct a scientific study using up-to-date indicators to determine how many drivers are actually required, examine licensing mechanisms and evaluate how the sector currently operates.
