The ruling in the Primera case is a clear decision, and it states that companies can not underpay pilots who work on a Danish base, but do not get the same terms as their colleagues on a collective agreement, says labor market researcher Henning Jørgensen.
Last month, the Labor Court ruled that a pilot who is employed as a contractor based in Denmark is entitled to a contractual salary and terms of employment in accordance with the current Danish collective agreement.
"The labor court has ruled on payment, and whether the person in question has received his or her legal salary, and there is a clear decision," says Henning Jørgensen, professor and labor market researcher at Aalborg University, who has seen the verdict.
The verdict came after the FPU had asked the Labor Court to assess whether the airline Primera should have given the same conditions to the pilots it had hired via a manning company on Guernsey as the pilots covered by an agreement in Denmark.
"You can see that you can not just underpay pilots. It is positive that it is stated that you must have a contractual salary and not underpay. You can not undermine the agreement in this way here in Denmark. It is important to get it out, ”says Henning Jørgensen.
