Core Viewpoint - The taxi industry in Nanjing is set to undergo significant changes with the introduction of a new model called "integrated operation of traditional and online taxis," allowing traditional taxis to operate on ride-hailing platforms with equal rights and pricing as ride-hailing services [1][2]. Group 1: New Regulations and Framework - The Nanjing Municipal Transportation Bureau is actively seeking public opinions on the revised "Nanjing Online Ride-Hailing Taxi Management Measures," which addresses issues such as platform algorithm rules, fare rationality, platform regulation, and driver rights protection [1][4]. - The revised regulations aim to enhance the management of the ride-hailing industry, which has evolved since the original measures were implemented in 2017, to better meet the demands of economic development and public transportation needs [4]. Group 2: Integrated Operation Model - The "integrated operation" model differs from the previous "fusion" approach by treating it as a new business category, allowing for data sharing between traditional taxis and ride-hailing services, thus enabling the acceptance of both types of orders [1][2]. - Participating companies in the pilot program will be selected based on their scale and creditworthiness, with 3 to 5 companies recommended by the Nanjing Taxi Association from those rated AAA in 2024 [1]. Group 3: Key Focus Areas of the Revised Measures - The revised measures focus on four main areas: protecting the labor rights of ride-hailing drivers, regulating platform operations, maintaining fair market competition, and enhancing regulatory efficiency [4]. - Specific provisions include clarifying labor relations and compensation rules, regulating platform commission and information disclosure, ensuring driver autonomy in accepting orders, and improving social security and occupational protection [4].
