Also the committee was elected, between whose members is even a person with PhD.

The aim of organization - to harmonize the city of Vilnius drivers' working conditions. It is no secret that in this sector untaxed pay is involved, and working conditions also vary widely. This will require a long way to go until branch collective agreement can be signed. Of course, there is a need to communicate with municipal officials. Drivers also expect that this will be possible to find common points with employers.

First task - to start work immediately encouraging others to join colleagues in the union and to strengthen their positions.

Lithuanian service sector workers 'trade union (LPSDPS) chairman Aleksandras Posochovas mentioned in the meeting that he is glad to see LPSDPS transport sector increased by the taxi drivers' union. According to him, this sector is emerging into four sub-sections: public transport, long-distance and local transportation and taxi drivers.
