Mobilization of She Taxi Rosario taxi drivers

Eliana, a reference for taxi drivers, declared to The Left Diary:

“The point is that She Taxi is a solidarity initiative, the app being free and that is shocking, because everything in the taxi is business, like the radio taxi business, which are mandatory and bill between 10 and 15 million euros. pesos per month.

They want the application to cease to exist because they think that in the taxi there cannot be any service that is free, and they want it to go back with the application and turn it into a radio taxi and charge itself ”.

Likewise, the spokesperson for She Taxi Rosario (Argentina), criticized machismo within the sector:

“In addition to the fact that some more backward sectors within taxi drivers say that the application is actually gender violence towards them, because we are 5% and they are 95%. Instead of asking for parity, they say they are being violated. “

They demand that the Municipality give them answers as to why they intend to remove the application, which today employs almost 200 women who drive a taxi for at least eight hours.

When the mobilizations of the taxi drivers became known, the users, as well as the women’s organizations echoed it and there was great support in social networks, highlighting that She Taxi defends itself because it is a tool for women and from the women themselves.

“We have received support from all the users, but we have not yet received any response from either the Municipality or the Council, we want them to comment,” said Eliana.

The State must give answers to the drivers, far from being the one that prohibits work, it has to guarantee that it can continue to be carried out, with all labor rights, so that there are no female workers on the street, nor without being able to reach an end of month.
