Unions have already stopped work a fortnight from February to June. They still claim wage increases.
The Air France inter-union threatens to "resume" the wage dispute in September, if no agreement on wages is reached by the start of the school year. "With or without a CEO, starting in September to avoid penalizing our pbadengers during the summer, the wage dispute will resume and only an agreement can put an end to it" warns in a leaflet inter-union of pilots (SNPL, Spaf, Alter), ground staff (CGT, FO, SOUTH) and hostesses and stewards (SNPNC, Unsa-PNC, CFTC, SNGAF).
The unions and the management of Air France have clashed since the beginning of the year on the issue of wage increases. They led a fortnight of strikes from February to June to obtain increases. Former CEO Jean-Marc Janaillac, who resigned in May, put his position in the balance during a staff consultation on a proposed salary enhancement agreement. He had to leave after the rejection of his plan by the employees.
This "hasty departure" to "highlighted a significant structural weakness in our organization: the board of directors can not overcome crisis situations " criticizes the inter-union. The latter adds that no succession plan was anticipated by the board – even though the CEO's departure hypothesis was on the table – resulting in a delay in the recruitment process for the new president.
"Commitments were made" for wages in mid-June before the central works council by the acting leader of the group, Anne-Marie Couderc, continues the inter-union. It had "before mid-July" find "a mandate to deal urgently with the wage issue" but "once again the word given was flouted" rebels the inter-union. In a letter sent to staff on July 13, management said that the recruitment process of the new Air France-KLM Group "should be finalized in the coming weeks" with a " Establishment Effective September ".
