Go-Jek to test driver-partner benefits programme on 1 April

The programme will include fuel rebates, prolonged medical leave insurance, and medical consultation services.

Go-Jek unveiled its dedicated benefits programme GoalBetter for driver-partners in Singapore, which will launch in an initial pilot phase to selected drivers on 1 April, an announcement revealed. The programme will later roll out to all eligible drivers in June.

The programme’s benefits will reportedly include fuel rebates, prolonged medical leave insurance and medical consultation services.

Go-Jek is partnering with Esso and DBS, Singapore’s largest petrol and bank networks, respectively, to provide its drivers with competitive fuel rebates of up to 32.4% in Singapore. All driver-partners can get an upfront discount of 20% when they purchase petrol at any of Esso’s 61 retail service stations around Singapore.

Meanwhile, the ride-hailing firm is also partnering with insurance technology firm Gigacover, which focuses on the protection needs of freelancers, to offer all Go-Jek driver-partners a standard earnings protection coverage of $80 per day. “Driver-partners need only to pay a single, subsidised monthly rate to Gigacover. This rate is dependent on age and ranges from $22.40 to $130.80,” Go-Jek noted.

The scheme will cover driver-partners for medical leave of up to 21 days and hospitalisation leave of up to 84 days. Top active driver-partners in the Gold and Platinum tiers will enjoy free coverage for the whole quarter paid for by Go-Jek,

Additionally, Go-Jek is partnering with on-demand video consultation platform Doctor Anywhere to provide all its active driver-partners with convenient access to online and physical medical consultation services.

Driver-partners will also be entitled to a partner rate for each medical consultation, where they can be diagnosed and treated for common illnesses, prescribed medication, and issued medical certificates and even referrals. Top active driver-partners - those in the Platinum tier* - will receive additional medical benefits fully subsidised by Go-Jek.

To access the various GoalBetter benefits, driver-partners will receive a GoalBetter kit with information about the programme, instructions on getting started, and their fuel card, during the first half of April.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
