Better Health for All

Quhuo Limited's core business of providing workforce operational solutions for on-demand services (food delivery, ride-hailing, housekeeping, bike-sharing) does not have a direct positive or negative health impact on consumers.
1
The company does not offer health-related products or services, nor does it collect or manage health data, thus many KPIs are not applicable.

The company aims to provide job opportunities for groups in need of flexible employment, such as students, unemployed individuals, and retirees,

and addresses the needs of China’s 160 million migrant workers.

The company reported 421 full-time employees in 2024, while also having over 830,000 registered workers across sectors by 2024.

This indicates that less than 1% of its total registered workforce are full-time employees, with the vast majority (over 99%) likely operating under gig or non-permanent contracts. New regulations in China are mandating social insurance and better pay for delivery riders, suggesting that previously, these benefits were not consistently provided.

The company changed its independent auditor from Ernst & Young Hua Ming LLP to Marcum Asia CPAs LLP on October 31, 2022.
