They are concerned, for example, with a better work-life balance or with more money. If the company does not react, passengers will soon feel the effects.
The pilots of the Lufthansa core company have asked their company to submit a tariff offer. The Cockpit Association (VC) said today in Frankfurt that its own demands had been on the table for a long time.
Among other things, it is about protection against stress, better compatibility of work and family as well as a new remuneration structure and salary increases. The union did not give details of the respective demands.
VC collective bargaining board member Marcel Gröls warned Lufthansa against playing for time. This inevitably leads to escalation. He accused the company of having only addressed individual points and at the same time linked them to counterclaims. The peace obligation ends for the more than 5000 pilots on June 30th. Strikes would thus already be possible in the summer holiday season.
