On September 24, 2024, taxi drivers gathered in front of Uber's headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, to protest for improved working conditions and higher wages. Around 500 drivers, represented by the Belgian Limousine Drivers' Union (UCLB), demonstrated against the heavy workload, Uber's commission fees of up to 35% on high-demand routes, competitive systems among drivers, and the overall instability of their profession.
