Norilsk: Taxi drivers arranged a protest rally

Drivers "Yandex.Taxi" in Norilsk made a protest against too low, in their opinion, wages. Taxi employees recorded a video published in the public "Norilsk.news".

Drivers demand to reduce the radius of filing applications, show the final point of the route to assess the duration of the trip, as well as increase payment for applications for two addresses. "It is unprofitable to ride 2-3 addresses for 95 rubles. In Norilsk, we have a liter of gasoline costs 55 rubles, and you want to be taken for 95 rubles," said one of the participants in the action.

The participants in the gathering agreed to continue the shares until the company's management reacts to their requirements. Some of the taxi employees were offered to strike until they follow the reaction from Yandex.Taxi, but the majority did not support such a proposal.

• On April 1, about 20 taxi companies gathered on Red Square in Krasnoyarsk. The gathering participants said they were dissatisfied with the policy of companies to reduce the prices for a taxi.
• In April 2020, some taxi drivers said that they would not comply with the applicants of Yandex.Taxi and Citimobil due to a decrease in earnings in connection with pandemia.
