This fact sheet recommends strategies for taxi drivers to prevent or reduce the likelihood of violence during a shift. You can reduce the risk - here's how." - NIOSHTIC-2 NIOSHTIC no. 20057443 Suggested citation: NIOSH/OSHA [2019]. NIOSH fast facts: taxi drivers—how to prevent robbery and violence.
