KLM Ground: First step

Yesterday, KLM made the newspaper again. This time it was about an impasse in the consultations between unions and KLM. But the miracles are not out of the world yet. While the newspaper was being printed, there was some space in the consultation for the first time. And of course we are happy with that. […]

First positive step in the consultation

Yesterday, KLM made the newspaper again. This time it was about an impasse in the consultations between unions and KLM. But the miracles are not out of the world yet.

KLM collective labor agreement negotiations have resumed

Last Wednesday, collective bargaining with KLM resumed. We have not actually got around to discussing the content for a new collective labor agreement. We mainly discussed KLM’s obligation to provide information under the current collective labor agreement with regard to Back on Track and the right of trade unions to be the first to issue […]

‘No forced redundancies’ as far as De Unie is concerned!

Over the past two days, trade unions and KLM have tried to get the collective labor agreement consultations back on track in a multi-consultation. This is necessary because little or nothing has been achieved in all areas so far. In this way, it will not be possible to reach a new collective labor agreement before […]

CLA update: Pressed the stop button for the time being

Collective labor agreement Grond in pause mode for the time being

As we reported earlier, the collective labor agreement negotiations are extremely difficult. Two consultation days were also planned this week. After the first day, however, we decided that there is no point in talking further about land-specific topics at the moment.

After four days of talks, we unfortunately have to conclude that there are still few leads to reach a deal. Response KLM Last Monday, KLM first responded to our proposals, and that response was disappointing. On all the […]
