Sebastian Baumgart has been elected to the Supervisory Board of Lufthansa Cargo as a representative of the employee list “Freightdogs United”.
Baumgart is the first pilot and the first member of the Cockpit Association (VC) on the panel. In future, he will represent the interests of all company employees vis-à-vis the Lufthansa Cargo Executive Board. The 37-year-old flies on a Boeing 777F and has been with Lufthansa Cargo for 13 years. With Baumgart, Lufthansa Cargo has a supervisory board that knows the operational issues of ground and administrative staff as well as those of the cockpit crews from years of experience and first hand.
"I am delighted with the election result and am very pleased with the trust that my colleagues have placed in me," says Sebastian Baumgart. "I will fight for the interests of all employees, because only together can we move our Lufthansa Cargo forward. The entire Supervisory Board must now ensure that jobs in the company are secured for the post-Corona period. To this end, I expect the company's management to make a clear commitment to its core workforce and to stop threatening to relocate jobs and aircraft to subsidiaries, joint ventures or third-party providers."
