The length of time a ride-hailing driver works has always been a mystery. After all, nominally speaking, the first time of drivers in the shared travel industry is very confusing, and it is generally timed from the time when the passengers get on the bus, which makes some passengers take advantage of the loophole, thinking that it doesn't matter if the driver waits a little longer, anyway, the billing starts from getting on the bus, and you don't have to pay more.
The online car-hailing platforms have no choice but to set up a certain waiting time in the face of the driver's complaints, and the driver can cancel it if the time exceeds the time, such as Didi taxi, tick travel, and a feed ride, etc., but this cost is generally borne by the driver
It doesn't matter to the passengers, but the driver has to suffer a big loss, from the platform's dispatch mechanism, the orders that are close to the starting point will not be sent to the driver nearby, so the driver's orders are some distance. Now the unit price is generally low, plus the waiting time for the order, the delivery time, it takes at least half an hour to complete an order, and it is only a dozen yuan.
With this pitiful hourly wage, it is better to go into the factory to screw it, at least there are five insurances and one housing fund and pension insurance.
Now the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security has issued a notice saying that the driver's ** and other single time will be included in the working hours. In other words, the time for the driver to wait for the order is also a cost.
The notice also requires that the daily working hours of workers in new employment forms include the cumulative time of receiving orders on the day and the relaxed working hours determined by taking due consideration of the necessary ** orders, service preparations, physiological needs and other factors of the workers. At the same time, the time required by the platform and the regular management time required offline are also included in the working hours.
This regulation is good for drivers, for drivers, waiting for the order to start billing, can effectively avoid passenger delays, reduce the time cost of waiting for orders, but also increase their own income.
For passengers, it is not necessarily, most of the domestic online car-hailing platforms are used to passengers as masters, he can delay the time and not get on the car, but the driver drives a little slower and threatens to complain to the other party. The driver waited for a long time at the boarding point, but could not get an apology from the passenger, but as soon as the passenger got on the bus, he began to urge the driver to run quickly, saying that he was in a hurry.
Isn't this weird, you say?
However, the driver group is also skeptical of this notice. Some people believe that this rule is difficult to enforce because it means that the cost to passengers will increase, and the number of orders will likely be reduced, and the platform will not be happy to see this.
Another part of the view is that this measure is actually useless, because the key to low income is the low unit price, as long as the unit price is raised, the driver can wait for more time.
Unit price, unit price, in a sense, is not completely determined by the platform, but by the market. Now that the subway and bus are developed, there are more and more private cars, and the group of taxis has been fixed, but the number of drivers is increasing, and the unit price can only be continuously lowered to attract passengers to place orders.
Even if it is a price increase, it will inevitably lead to a further reduction in the number of orders, so what is the use of a higher unit price at that time? There is less demand, fewer passengers, and the driver still has orders to pick up?
