Question 65

Logical Reasoning Statement and Conclusions Medium

Gig and platform workers need to work for at least 90 days annually with an aggregator to avail of social security benefits, said the final set of rules formulated under the new Code on Social Security (CoSS). In case a worker is engaged with multiple aggregators, the threshold is raised to 120 days, a decision that will affect those working with Swiggy and Zomato or Uber, Ola and Rapido. The rules pave the way for the states to notify their own rules by taking cue from the central ones. Under these latest CoSS rules, an eligible gig and platform worker includes all such workers engaged by the aggregator directly or through an associate, holding or subsidiary company or through a third party. Income earned from aggregator on a day will be treated as one-day with the platform. For those on multiple platforms, workdays are cumulative. For instance, earning from three aggregators in one calendar day will be counted as three days of engagement. Select a conclusion which can be closely deduced.

(A) All gig workers are automatically eligible to access social security benefits
(B) If a gig worker works in three aggregator platforms, they need to work for 120 days in each platform to get the benefits
(C) Aggregator platforms like Blinkit and Flipkart minutes who work on same business models as Swiggy or Rapido are not covered under Code on Social Security
(D) Code of Social Security is given by the central government
✓ Correct Answer: Option D Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

The text states: "The rules pave the way for the states to notify their own rules by taking cue from the central ones." This sentence implies that the original framework or rules (the Code on Social Security) are established by the central government, which acts as the baseline for states. Options A, B, and C present inaccurate interpretations or false generalizations not supported by the text.
