The holiday airline Condor increases the salaries of the workforce by around nine percent. Collective bargaining, however, is not pending. The UFO, Verdi and Vereinigung Cockpit trade unions rated the procedure positively.
Almost unnoticed by the public, new remuneration for staff was negotiated with the three employee representatives mentioned. These should take account of the current inflation and, depending on the job, bring between seven and nine percent more wages. According to a Condor spokeswoman, all of the approximately 4.000 employees of the German holiday airline are affected.
This salary increase is intended in particular to express the company's appreciation of the commitment and commitment of the Condorians in this challenging summer and the past few months," said a Condor spokeswoman. The trade unions also suspect that this could be a strategic move by the management, because the negotiations for wage increases in many professional groups at competitor Lufthansa would be much more complicated. It would have been different at Condor, because the initiative would have come from the company management itself.
