(ANSA) – ROME, June 06 – A difficult day on Wednesday June 8 to fly. Unions have called strikes in some of the most active airlines in Italian airports, starting with Ryanair and Easyjet.

In detail, the Easyjet and Volotea flight crews will cross their arms for 4 hours due to the agitation proclaimed by Uiltrasporti. “The workers of EasyJet – explains the union – will protest against the compression of rights which culminated in unjustified dismissals, against the lack of operational solidity, to the detriment of passengers and crews and against the total deterioration of industrial relations”. As for Volotea Uiltrasporti, on the other hand, he speaks of “a continuous anti-union conduct carried out by the company: unacceptable requests for salary reductions, promotions and economic upgrades at the sole discretion of the company to exercise real control over its employees, to which they add disciplinary disputes in contrast with the Italian legislation “.

The 4-hour national strike was confirmed, from 10 to 14, also by pilots and flight attendants of Ryanair, Malta Air and the CrewLink company, “given the impossibility – underline Filt Cgil and Uiltrasporti together – to open a discussion dedicated to the problems that have afflicted the crew for months “. “Among the open questions – explain the trade unions – the failure to comply with the minimum wages provided for by the national contract, the persistence of an agreement on the cut of wages (contingency agreement) that is no longer current, the arbitrary reductions of the paycheck, the non-payment of sick days, the company’s refusal to grant compulsory leave during the summer season and the lack of water and meals for the crew “.

“In the absence of concrete signals from Ryanair – finally affirm Filt Cgil and Uiltrasporti – that of Wednesday 8 will be only the first strike action of a series that will affect the whole summer period”. (HANDLE).
