[News] Value every cabbie to meet taxi availability targets
-
NTA should not be the 1 you guys targeted on........
They are just like this forum, gong wu gong bo nia.......
Their main concern is to help TD who are in need, in term of financial help etc, which I believe many had benefit from it(don't take already diam diam), just like chief wanted to help newbies but with limited power........
Take on PTC la, they are the actual 1 who will influence your livinhood.......

Taxi standards: SMRT warning to cabbies a 'premature move'
Published on Apr 22, 2013SMRT Taxis has told some drivers that their leases may cease if they fail to meet standards set by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) - a move which has been criticised by the National Taxi Association (NTA).
These standards, which came into force in January, require taxi companies to have 70 per cent of their fleet travel at least 250km each day and ply the roads during peak hours. The standards will be raised next year, and again the year after.
But the NTA said on Saturday that taxi operators should not "simply pass the blame" to drivers, and called SMRT Taxis' move a "premature action".
The NTA statement followed Lianhe Wanbao reports last week, in which an SMRT taxi driver, who declined to be named, said he received a letter on April 12.
It informed him that he did not meet the daily 250km mark from January to March. It also warned that his contract would be reviewed if he did not meet the requirement after a month.
According to another report, the issue came up at last Friday's two-hour feedback session between 30 drivers and SMRT. Drivers asked that the 250km requirement be calculated on an average basis. So if a driver does not travel far enough on one day, he can drive longer distances on other days to meet the target.
SMRT said it will submit the request to LTA and help its cabbies find relief drivers.
This month, SMRT Taxis has been holding its sessions with drivers, which are usually held once every month, on a weekly basis.
This is mainly to explain to drivers how to meet the LTA's maintenance and taxi availability standards, said SMRT vice-president for corporate marketing and communications Kalai Natarajan.
"SMRT has been very proactive in stepping up our communication and assistance efforts to ensure that commuters continue to enjoy their travel experience - by way of helping our drivers cope with the new LTA-mandated ruling," Ms Natarajan said.
The taxi association also asked that LTA "play a more proactive role" in ensuring that cabbies are "fairly treated" and that taxi operators work alongside drivers to meet the targets.
An LTA spokesman said the standards are "based on the taxi fleet and not per taxi driver", and no financial penalties would be imposed on taxi companies for the first six months.

some just want the cab for personal use.
some just want the flexi hours if omo.
many reasons for omo or relief.
but good partnership is not easy to find and maintain.
some got bad experience with relief/hirer.
never ending stories again.
End of the day, to put more cabs on the road, either u penalise omo or incentivise hirers with relief, or both!
That was what happened and they want to minimise it .

Not saying u , saying those scholars from taxi companies . -
This 250 rule was put up by LTA on Taxi companies, not on Taxi driver.
So, in desparate to get the 250km, companies would have to push it down the throat of each of their hirer without taking any responsibility to work together with TDs to achieve the requirement.
To a taxi company, this LTA 250km rule help nothing but only increase their cost of operation, cost of admin to monitor the hirer, cost of having to maintain that discipline, cost of having to lecture this and that drivers. And when cost increase, profit will drop, and if you ask the Taxi companies to further work along with the TD to achieve the target, more cost will be added, cost of lesson, cost of finding relief for them, cos of helping them to maintain 250km. So, most companies will not do it, because it is a high cost for them.
And to minimise such cost of having to admin, train, match and find...they just choose the simple way out, terminate the contract and the next one take over. Indirectly, they are using a cane to get it done, and using cane is not a long term solution to anything.
-
si bei funny.. if this lta can only use a cane to get thing done,
y i feel that lta can only use carrot on themselve to do stoopid things.. si mi 250?
si mi free mrt travel..
lta now work like those part time agt in the past, those type u call fly by night..
today u c them, tmr they disappear..

not forgetting smrt top mgmt all just changed.
cum from army, only want yes sir, no other reply.
see how they run smrt to the ground again
-
Smrt did change some mgmt at some dept, but no change in Taxi dept, top mgmt still using the same person recruit by that punk head former ceo, I guess smrt using these kind of stunt is maybe because they are very worried that at the end of the day if the company did not able to hit these 250km regulations, smrt might not able to expand their fleet ??? I would guess they still have a order of a very large quantities of new taxi waiting somewhere at the port or holding area waiting to be registered? ?
Maybe their new boss from army is asking the question why smrt taxi division has not been performing has not been expanding all this years , I would expect in the next 24mths more heads will roll over at ----> taxi division hahaha
