The taxi driver shift system at ERES Partner is a collaboration model based on a fixed schedule. One vehicle is operated by two drivers, who split the day into two shifts: a day shift from 6:00 AM to 18:00 PM and a night shift from 18:00 PM to 6:00 AM. Each driver works at least nine hours a day, being active on a transportation app, most often Uber.
This isn't part-time or flexible work, as is often mistakenly assumed. It's a specific and structured form of employment that requires punctuality, consistency, and responsibility. Fixed working hours allow for better daily planning and ensure high vehicle utilization efficiency.
Who is shift work a good solution for?
The shift system is designed for people who view driving as a real source of income, not a casual activity. It's suitable for both experienced drivers who want to increase their income without investing in their own vehicle, as well as those just starting out in the transport industry. Thanks to the operator's support and the availability of comprehensive technical support, new drivers can quickly become accustomed to their duties and work in a structured manner.
At ERES Partner, you don't have to look for a partner on your own - the company helps you choose a car-sharing partner based on your location and preferred schedule.
The advantages and challenges of shift work
The biggest advantage of the shift system is the lack of the need for a personal vehicle, eliminating high upfront costs and the responsibility for servicing, insurance, and maintenance. ERES Partner provides new, well-maintained vehicles, including hybrids and LPG-equipped vehicles, fully adapted for driving on apps like Uber. Drivers also receive a fuel card, free car wash, vacuum cleaner, and fluids, and can count on 24/7 service assistance. A coordinator is also available to assist drivers in case of any issues.
We also provide free medical and psychological examinations – the cost is reimbursed after a minimum of 350 trips. However, it's important to remember that shift work requires a high level of responsibility and good cooperation with the other driver. The vehicle must be handed over on time, and each user must maintain its technical and aesthetic condition.
What does the settlement and cooperation in the shift model with ERES Partner look like?
ERES Partner's billing is transparent and beneficial for drivers. Commission is based on weekly turnover and can be as high as 55% if certain conditions are met, such as a sufficiently high order acceptance rate and low cancellation rate. Depending on the turnover level achieved, the commission rate decreases, and for the highest results, the company does not charge any additional fees.
Moreover, if a driver wishes to avoid the settlement fee, they can withhold payment and accumulate the funds for the next period. Each driver signs an individual contract with the company, and the details of the cooperation are clearly presented before the work begins. The vehicle is delivered at the agreed location and time, and all logistics – from insurance and technical inspections to licensing documents – are handled by ERES Partner.
Opinions of shift drivers – what do they say about this form of work?
Drivers who choose shift work emphasize the transparency of the rules, the consistency of their schedule, and the ability to work without investing in their own vehicle. They appreciate the fact that they can focus on driving, not on servicing the vehicle or organizing paperwork. Cooperation between drivers also tends to be good – many of them drive in pairs for months at a time, establishing clear rules for vehicle sharing.
Positive reviews also highlight the high quality of the vehicles and the prompt technical support, which helps avoid long downtime. Many drivers also highlight interesting incentives, such as the ERES Challenge, which further encourage increased turnover and reward commitment.
