First Class Taxis has a drivers insurance scheme that indemnifies drivers for “At Fault” accidents. The scheme also incorporates Personal Accident Insurance (PAI) and public liability insurance to the extent of the policy. Should a driver be injured whilst driving the taxi, or traveling to or from work in their own transport the Personal Accident Insurance (PAI) will ensure a regular weekly income (to the length of the policy terms and conditions) until your condition allows you to drive again. Drivers pay a per shift fee for these benefits.
If you are looking for a career or a short term job until your next career move that offers you independence, flexibility and the ability to earn a solid income we would like to hear from you. At First Class Taxis we can show you how to achieve this.
Few people realise the importance that taxi drivers play on our community. They introduce new tourists to our city, operate student school runs, including special schools, operate subsidised Council Cabs for the elderly, assist war veterans to doctors appointments and nightclubers safely home after a night out. These are all in a normal day for our valued taxi drivers. It is a job that offers great financial and personal reward for you and your family.
