Former employees will have higher priority in the administrative process than drivers, who are contractors and considered "unsecured creditors". Deliveroo Australia staff received an initial compensation payment just before operations shut down, while all riders who made a delivery in the last three months have received two weeks worth of pay. As part of the voluntary administration process, Deliveroo will put forward a Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA), a proposal that lays out how the company's affairs and assets will be dealt with.
