The app-based ride-share service essentially allows anyone to become a taxi driver with an own car. Drivers must be over 21 and own a car with four doors, but they need not be a professional taxi driver. But the legality of the service has long been questioned. In June, Zurich’s government said that any driver who does not have a taxi permit is operating illegally and should be fined. Trade union Unia hailed Uber’s decision to withdraw the service from Zurich as a ‘partial victory’. Unia continues its fight in other cities, like Basel, that still tolerate the Uber services.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thelocal.ch\u002F20170810\u002Fuber-cancels-low-cost-uberpop-service-in-zurich\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thelocal.ch\u002F20170810\u002Fuber-cancels-low-cost-uberpop-service-in-zurich\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Union reaction (German): \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.unia.ch\u002Fde\u002Faktuell\u002Faktuell\u002Fartikel\u002Fa\u002F13998\u002F\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.unia.ch\u002Fde\u002Faktuell … \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Union reaction (French): \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.unia.ch\u002Ffr\u002Factualites\u002Factualites\u002Farticle\u002Fa\u002F13998\u002F\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.unia.ch\u002Ffr\u002Factualites ... \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Willy De Backer \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:wdebacker@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">wdebacker@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
