As of April 2022, about 40 percent of platform workers newly enrolled in South Korea's employment insurance system were insured in Seoul. This was mainly because many of the food delivery drivers, who make up the largest share of all newly insured platform workers, were mainly based in Seoul. Since 2020, the South Korean government has extended the employment insurance scheme to artists and special types of workers, and since 2022, other platform workers, such as delivery drivers and designated drivers, have also been able to join the employment insurance system.
