5,2% increase over 17 months, but this has not been an issue anymore (after DFS started negotiations "offering" a pay freeze, even a reduction for most controllers).
I think our union did an OUTSTANDING job!
Main issue was the unionīs demanding operational experience for positions like supervisors and lower management positions that are responsible for ATC operations...strange that you have to fight for this at all.
Iīm curious to learn what REALLY happened during the negotiations. I was disgusted about the top level managementīs behaviour towards their employees during the conflict. Everyone found a letter at home in which they essentially threatened everyone with sacking....not so nice, I would say!
My impression is that the bulk of the operational workforce has completely lost its faith in our directors. I would like them to be replaced sooner rather than later.
