“The first fact,” explains Davide Nicolettipermanent delegate CSC Public Services, “is related to an accident that occurred this Monday on Place Général Leman and where the driver did not know how to call for help. The second relates to the attack on a bus driver who did not He didn’t know how to raise the alarm. A traveler who hadn’t paid for his ticket smashed into his cabin. He then called dispatch with his own phone but his call was not a priority so he had to wait until 18:00. minutes before being able to raise the alarm.”
Return to work Wednesday
Learning of this, several drivers walked off the job. A meeting with management was quickly organized and things evolved just as quickly. “Management has in fact admitted that there were indeed white areas and assured us that it would do everything possible to remove them. But in the meantime, a temporary solution has been put in place, with the creation of a special “emergency” telephone number at dispatch. Any driver in difficulty who notices that the normal call is not working can dial this number using their own telephone.
A new meeting where the subject will be discussed is scheduled for November 12. In the meantime, the striking drivers have not returned to work. They should do it on Wednesday morning.
