RYANAIR REACHES AGREEMENT WITH ITALIAN UNIONS ON OUTLINE TERMS OF A
COLLECTIVE LABOUR AGREEMENT (CLA)
Ryanair today (14 Sept) confirmed that it met in Rome yesterday
with the 3 main cabin crew unions FIT CISL, ANPAC, and ANPAV, and a
set of agreed principles were signed, which will form the basis of
a comprehensive Collective Labour Agreement (CLA) to cover
Ryanair's Italian based cabin crew from 1 Oct 2018. The parties
agreed that they are "now in the final stages of
concluding final terms and conditions of a CLA", which will:
-
Run for 3 years from Fri 1 Oct 2018 to 31 Dec 2021
-
Be governed by Italian law and the Italian Courts
-
Allow Italian cabin crew transition to local contracts over an
agreed period
-
Deliver increased pay under a new pay structure, which will see
crews benefit from increased tax free allowances (similar to other
Italian airlines)
-
Introduce an Italian Pension Scheme as part of the overall
package
Ryanair's Chief People Officer Eddie Wilson said:
"We welcome this agreement with
the 3 Italian cabin crew unions on the terms of a Collective Labour
Agreement (CLA), which will cover all of our Italian based cabin
crew, and will start from next month. This agreement follows recent
cabin crew agreements in Ireland with FORSA and in the UK with
UNITE.
We expect to sign this first CLA for our Italian cabin crew before
the end of Sept, which will lead to significant pay improvements
and other benefits for our Italian based cabin crew. This agreement
is a further sign of the significant progress Ryanair is making in
reaching agreements with our people and their unions in different
EU countries, and disproves false claims made by smaller unions not
involved in these negotiations, and who are threatening strikes
later this winter, which will either not take place or be
unsuccessful."
