加拿大第二大航空公司WestJet的4400名空乘人员工会周四发出72小时罢工通知,罢工可能于周日开始1。这次行动恰逢加拿大8月3日周一为假日,形成三天长周末,可能对航空运输造成重大影响1。
双方争议的核心是地面工作的报酬问题1。工会指出部分工作无偿进行,而WestJet采用信用小时制而非时薪制进行计酬1。加拿大公务员工会主席Alia Hussain表示"仍有时间避免罢工"1,表明目前双方仍在协商,希望达成协议1。
WestJet日均运送约75000名乘客,执行600余班次航班1。去年Air Canada空乘人员罢工持续三天后达成协议,为双方谈判提供了参考1。
WestJet's union representing approximately 4,400 flight attendants issued a 72-hour strike notice on Thursday, with a potential work stoppage set to begin on Sunday. 1 The timing of the threatened action coincides with a long holiday weekend in Canada, as August 3 is a statutory holiday, creating a three-day break. 1
The central dispute centers on compensation for ground duties, which the union contends are performed without pay, while WestJet currently uses a credit-hour system rather than hourly wages for such work. 1 Despite the strike threat, negotiations between the parties remain ongoing. Alia Hussain, president of the Public Service Alliance of Canada, stated that "there's still time to avoid a strike." 1 WestJet operates approximately 600 flights daily, carrying roughly 75,000 passengers, meaning a strike could significantly disrupt travel during the busy holiday weekend. 1 The dispute echoes a labor action by Air Canada flight attendants last year, which resulted in an agreement after three days of walkout. 1
