RYANAIR AGREES CABIN CREW COLLECTIVE LABOUR AGREEMENT (CLA)
FOR ITALY
Ryanair today (25 Sep) confirmed that it has agreed a Collective
Labour Agreement (CLA) with the 3 main cabin crew unions FIT CISL,
ANPAC, and ANPAV, to cover all Ryanair's Italian based cabin crew
from 1 Oct 2018.
This proposed CLA 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 with immediate access to Italian benefits such as
maternity and paternity leave.
-
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 have signed a CLA with the 3
Italian cabin crew unions, which will cover all of our Italian
based cabin crew, will lead to significant pay improvements and
other benefits for our Italian based cabin crew, and will start
from next month. This follows recent cabin crew agreements in
Ireland with FORSA and in the UK with UNITE.
This 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, which will either not take place or be
unsuccessful.
We have again invited
our German, Portuguese and Spanish unions to meet with us so that
we can negotiate and hopefully agree similar CLAs in these other
larger markets."
