Overview

There are many instances where the New Taxi Driver either does not get any formal Induction training or gets ‘handed down’ training which may result in ‘bad habits or inconsistencies’ occurring. It is essential for the driver, owner and Taxi Operator that he/she is able to become as effective as soon as possible after becoming licensed.

This will not only allow for the provision of good customer service but will give the driver confidence and additionally increase their ability to earn through good knowledge and increased tips. The scenario of ‘here’s the car, the meter, the datahead and the keys, over to you’ will not happen. 

By all drivers undertaking Induction training they will be trained to a consistent and professional standard. This will engender a more positive and confident taxi driver from the outset. In addition, the existing drivers may also want to share and contribute to the programme.

The Driver Induction Programme provides the Taxi Operator with all of the tools required to set up, implement and manage a programme that has been customised to their own mode of operation.

Driver Induction Manual A generic format driver induction manual has been created using MS Word. The manual will form the basis of a programme and will be customised to the local and Taxi Operator requirements.
