Jaipur, 10th October – Apex Hospitals, Malviya Nagar, Jaipur, will host a free, two-day health checkup drive “Seva for the Ones Who Serve” exclusively for the city’s ride-share drivers, delivery agents and gig workers. The initiative is scheduled for October 13 and 14, 2025. The health drive aims to recognize and support the essential service provided by these workers.
Under the health drive, the hospital will conduct essential tests and checkups, including a Complete Blood Count (CBC), Blood Pressure measurement, Blood Sugar test, and calculation of Body Mass Index (BMI). Additionally, the checkup will also include an ECG (Electrocardiogram), and each participant will receive a consultation with a doctor to review their results.
“Delivery partners are the backbone of modern urban life, yet their demanding schedules often push their personal health into the back seat,” said Dr. Shailesh Jhawar, Director, Apex Hospitals. “During the festive season, the load on delivery partners increases manifold, giving them very little to no time to care for their health. Continuous travel and irregular hours can make conditions like hypertension or diabetes silent threats. This year, as a token of appreciation during the festive season, we want to ensure their health is a priority. Through our free health checkup drive, we aim to provide preventive healthcare that is crucial for identifying health risks early. We urge all eligible partners to take advantage of this comprehensive, free service.”
A recent study examining the physical and mental health of delivery personnel concluded that 99.3% suffer from physical ailments and 98.5% suffer from mental health-related issues. Given the unique occupational risks associated with constant travel and physical exertion, this health drive focuses on actionable preventative measures, aiming to address any health-related issues proactively. Delivery partners, including those from food, grocery, e-commerce, and logistics services are strongly encouraged to utilize this free service to secure a healthier future.
