According to Nguyen Hoang Trung, chairman of Transerco, the firm has faced various difficulties in the first six months of this year.
Transerco's buses left unused due to the pandemic
Bus service revenues dropped by VND200 billion (USD8.69 million) compared to the same period of last year. As a result, around 2,500 bus services staff or 40% of the company’s staff have had to halt their work without salary.
Transerco has asked local authorities to approve the firm’s plan on revenue target reduction this year. Under the company’s proposal, its workers should also early be considered for being benefited from the government’s relief package for people affected by Covid-19.
The company has also expected that their staff be prioritised for Covid-19 vaccination as they usually come into contact with many people.
