Kan bli flystreik

Sunday may see a strike at SAS Link subsidiary should the union members not reach an agreement with the national mediator. The deadline is midnight Saturday, and the Federatión has warned that 24 cabin crew could be called out in the first round. - The Federatión is awaiting a very demanding compromise for its members on the SAS Link agreement, says bargaining leader Dag-Einar Sivertsen to E24.

The trade union meets with NHO Aviation in addition to SAS for negotiations, beginning at 10 a.m. - We believe it will be a demanding compromise, but we expect we can reach an agreement, says Erik Lahnstein, executive director at NHO Aviation, to Børsen. Negotiations broke down in September, and the national mediator was therefore called upon to help find a solution.

Wage development and working conditions proved decisive for the breakdown according to the Federatión's side. Sivertsen tells Børsen that there is a bitter disagreement on which wage model should apply moving forward. - A system where the basic salary is low and risk is borne by the employees through a variable wage model is not something we are particularly positive about, he says.

In August, cabin crew at SAS under the so-called Flyover agreement reached a 25-hour overtime deal. This led to warnings that around 760 employees could be called out in a strike.
