Utter and complete chaos this morning at SXF as the union called security personnel out on a warning strike this morning (5-8.45am).

My understanding is that the security staff is working on behalf of the Federal Police and the matter is in fact not in the hands of the airport operator. Still, quite messy and not helping the abysmal reputation of the place.

Edited: from online sources
The union wants hourly pay for all workers conducting security checks to rise to 20 euros ($22.81). Employer association BDLS says this could amount to a 30 percent increase in some cases.
It is not a super complex job but €15-18 (my guess from the above) / hour seems awfully low.
