Snap-E Cabs, an on-demand, app-based fleet of electric vehicles aims to increase the number of women cab drivers in its fleet. The company is set to train and engage the first batch with 30 women drivers and 50-60 in the next 2 batches and take the overall count to about 100 in the next few months. The initiative aims to create earning opportunities for individuals of all genders who aspire to work as professional cab drivers.
The cab company has tied-up with the NPTC Group of Colleges, UK to implement a training programme under ‘Utkarsh Bangla’, a flagship scheme under the aegis of the Paschim Banga Society for Skill Development.
