RYANAIR RECOGNISES UNITE UNION FOR UK BASED CABIN CREW
UK ACCOUNTS FOR 25% OF RYANAIR'S FLEET
Ryanair today (11 June) announced that it has signed its second
cabin crew union recognition agreement with Unite the Union, who
will now be the representative body for Ryanair directly employed
cabin crew in the UK. This agreement follows Ryanair's first cabin
crew recognition deal with the Italian ANPAC/ANPAV
unions.
This cabin crew recognition agreement follows extensive
negotiations with Unite the Union and covers the UK market, which
accounts for approx. 25% of Ryanair's fleet. Ryanair looks forward
to working with Unite the Union and its Ryanair (Cabin Crew)
Company Council to conclude an early CLA for Ryanair's directly
employed cabin crew based in the UK.
Ryanair's Chief People Officer Eddie Wilson said:
"We are pleased to sign this cabin crew recognition agreement with
Unite the Union in the U.K. This is a further sign of the progress
Ryanair is making with trade unions since our December 2017
decision to recognise them. We hope to announce further agreements
over the coming weeks, in those countries where unions have
approached these negotiations in a practical and positive manner.
We are making less progress in some smaller countries where minor
issues (such as days off for union officials) are unnecessarily
delaying agreements.
However, as this growing number of pilot and cabin crew recognition
agreements confirms, we are making progress and confounding those
sceptics who claimed that our December 2017 decision was not real
or genuine. We look forward to working closely with both Unite the
Union, and their Company Council to address issues of concern to
our UK based cabin crew."
