Nuovo sciopero per i piloti.
Pilots' union threatens renewed strikes at Lufthansa
Pilots union Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) threatened renewed strike action at Lufthansa, saying the German flag carrier had rejected its offer of concessions in a long-running dispute that has cost the airline hundreds of millions of euros.
Walkouts could start any time and could hit Lufthansa, its cargo arm Lufthansa Cargo and its budget carrier Germanwings, VC said in a statement on Wednesday.
Lufthansa denied it had turned down the offer and said it regretted that VC had declared the negotiations a failure. "We hope that talks can resume," a spokesman for Lufthansa said.
Lufthansa pilots have staged more than a dozen strikes since April last year to protest against plans by management to change retirement benefits and lower costs via expansion of a new budget carrier, Eurowings.
Last month, VC had offered concessions in a bid to end the pay dispute, including agreeing to an increase in the average retirement age and lowering costs.
VC said on Wednesday that Lufthansa had rejected the offer, which it said "shows that it's not about market conditions for Lufthansa, but rather about abandoning collective agreements and outsourcing jobs".
Lufthansa is grappling with an increased pension deficit against the backdrop of low interest rates. It says it needs to cut costs to halt a loss of market share to low-cost carriers in Europe and more nimble competitors such as Turkish Airlines and Emirates on long-haul routes.

Lufthansa CEO defends cost cuts as pilots threaten more strikes
Lufthansa's (LHAG.DE) chief executive defended the German airline's hard line on strikes on Wednesday after pilots' union Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) threatened further walkouts in an row over retirement benefits and cost cuts.
VC said earlier the German flag carrier had rejected its offer of concessions in a long-running dispute that has seen a dozen strikes over the last 18 months and cost the airline hundreds of millions of euros.
Walkouts could start any time and could hit Lufthansa, its cargo arm Lufthansa Cargo and its budget carrier Germanwings, VC said in a statement.
"If strikes are the price to pay to make Lufthansa fit for the future, then we must pay it," Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr told journalists on the sidelines of a conference in Vienna.
Lufthansa is grappling with an increased pension deficit against the backdrop of low interest rates. It says it needs to cut costs to halt a loss of market share to low-cost carriers in Europe and more nimble competitors such as Turkish Airlines (THYAO.IS) and Emirates [EMIRA.UL] on long-haul routes.
Ryanair (RYA.I) is among those targeting the German market and has promised to slash fares this winter to gain market share.
"We have not yet reached the same conclusion as to how Lufthansa must be structured in order to deal with the rivals who are knocking on our door and threatening to bring a new wave of low-cost flights to Germany and Austria," Spohr said.
The pilots had offered concessions in a bid to end the dispute, including agreeing to an increase in the average retirement age and lowering costs.
However, they had also wanted the new Eurowings budget carrier to be based in Germany, rather than Austria, so that pilots could join German collective labor agreements, which industry experts had said was likely to be a sticking point.
VC said on Wednesday Lufthansa had rejected the offer, which it said "shows that it's not about market conditions for Lufthansa, but rather about abandoning collective agreements and outsourcing jobs".
Lufthansa denied it had turned down the offer, saying it had proposed working groups to discuss the outstanding points. A spokesman said Lufthansa hoped talks could resume and that only its rivals would benefit from more strikes.
Lufthansa shares turned negative after the union's announcement and were down 0.5 percent at 1027 GMT, underperforming a 0.1 percent higher German blue-chip index.GDAXI.

Non credo abbia molta scelta, a parte attendere i piloti al varco della prossima recessione.
Lufthansa to take legal action against Vereinigung Cockpit’s Group Collective Labor Agreement Committee
The response from the Vereinigung Cockpit pilots’ union to the numerous proposals and offers of talks submitted by Lufthansa has been further strike action, which today is affecting long-haul services and tomorrow will affect all the company’s short- and medium-haul routes, and thereby again subject its customers to unacceptable inconvenience.
For the past two years, right up until yesterday, Lufthansa has been approaching the Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) Group Collective Labor Agreement Committee with constructive proposals, offers and concessions. In doing so, the company has made concrete proposals on every open collective labor agreement issue, with a view to working together with the VC to jointly ensure the future viability and competitiveness of the company as a whole and of Lufthansa German Airlines in particular. In addition, Lufthansa has also demonstrated a willingness to discuss issues with the VC Group Collective Labor Agreement Committee that extend far beyond the latter’s responsibility and authority.
Since it is evidently impossible at present to engage in constructive negotiations, Lufthansa has now resolved that:
“We would have liked to finally resume our CLA negotiations with the Vereinigung Cockpit instead of having to respond with this further escalation,” says Bettina Volkens, Chief Officer Corporate Human Resources & Legal Affairs at Deutsche Lufthansa AG. “I also appeal to our pilots to live up to their personal responsibilities. With the strike plans outlined by the VC for the time between now and the end of this year, the financial damage to our company would exceed 100,000 euros per pilot. It is high time we sat down and found a solution here.”

The response from the Vereinigung Cockpit pilots’ union to the numerous proposals and offers of talks submitted by Lufthansa has been further strike action, which today is affecting long-haul services and tomorrow will affect all the company’s short- and medium-haul routes, and thereby again subject its customers to unacceptable inconvenience.
For the past two years, right up until yesterday, Lufthansa has been approaching the Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) Group Collective Labor Agreement Committee with constructive proposals, offers and concessions. In doing so, the company has made concrete proposals on every open collective labor agreement issue, with a view to working together with the VC to jointly ensure the future viability and competitiveness of the company as a whole and of Lufthansa German Airlines in particular. In addition, Lufthansa has also demonstrated a willingness to discuss issues with the VC Group Collective Labor Agreement Committee that extend far beyond the latter’s responsibility and authority.
Since it is evidently impossible at present to engage in constructive negotiations, Lufthansa has now resolved that:
- The existing rights and benefits held by the cockpit personnel already at the company under their present Group Collective Labor Agreements (CLAs) will be frozen at their current levels until such time as any new Group CLA is concluded. In view of the company’s current inability to compete, however, no more new pilots will be employed under these Group CLA conditions at Lufthansa German Airlines, Lufthansa Cargo or Germanwings. As a result, the natural employee turnover within the present cockpit corps will lead to gradual reductions in these companies’ aircraft fleets. At the same time, every present cockpit crew member at these companies will retain their position.
- Any future discussions with the VC Group Collective Labor Agreement Committee will be limited to those issues within its responsibility and authority. These are in particular the Compensation CLA, the Umbrella CLA, the CLA on Transfers and Promotions, the CLA on Old Age Provisions, the CLA on Employee Representation and the CLA on Transitional Retirement Provisions.
- Lufthansa will carefully consider whether all the agreements between the company and the VC Group Collective Labor Agreement Committee on which notice has not yet been served can be meaningfully maintained.
- Lufthansa will submit a claim for compensatory damages against the Vereinigung Cockpit to the Frankfurt Labor Court. This claim will be based on the unlawfulness of the pilots’ strike of April 2014, when the Vereinigung Cockpit ordered strike action against Lufthansa Cargo even though the corresponding CLA was still in force. The damage caused to the Lufthansa Group as a result of the April 2014 strike totaled around EUR 60 million.
- Lufthansa is considering what possibilities (if any) the German Collective Bargaining Act (“Tarifeinheitsgesetz”) offers to prevent further harm to the company and its customers. In taking these actions Lufthansa is assuming responsibility for the future competitiveness and viability of the entire company, for its customers (who are currently being subjected to unacceptable inconvenience) and for its 120,000 employees from all personnel groups whose jobs are directly dependent on the company’s future.
“We would have liked to finally resume our CLA negotiations with the Vereinigung Cockpit instead of having to respond with this further escalation,” says Bettina Volkens, Chief Officer Corporate Human Resources & Legal Affairs at Deutsche Lufthansa AG. “I also appeal to our pilots to live up to their personal responsibilities. With the strike plans outlined by the VC for the time between now and the end of this year, the financial damage to our company would exceed 100,000 euros per pilot.

Lufthansa, il Tribunale del lavoro: 'Stop a sciopero piloti'
I giudici dell'Assia hanno fermato l'agitazione indetta dai dipendenti della compagnia di bandiera tedesca. Cancellati finora oltre 1000 voli
Il tribunale del diritto del lavoro dell'Assia ha per ora fermato lo sciopero dei piloti della Lufthansa. Il giudice ha emanato un decreto temporaneo per stoppare l'astensione dal lavoro indetta dal sindacato Cokpit in corso da ieri.
Circa 1000 i voli cancellati - Lo sciopero della compagnia di bandiera tedesca ha provocato la cancellazione di circa 1000 voli. La mobilitazione ha lasciato a terra solo ieri 90 voli, sulle tratte lunghe, ed è stata estesa oggi alle tratte brevi e medie. Si tratta del tredicesimo sciopero nell'ambito della stessa vertenza.
Cancellati 8 voli a Fiumicino - Disagi anche a Fiumicino. Per l'agitazione sono stati cancellati 8 voli Lufthansa su 11 programmati in partenza oggi dall'aeroporto di Roma. Quattro erano diretti a Francoforte ed altrettanti a Monaco. Oltre mille, stando alle stime, i passeggeri coinvolti e tutti informati e contattati dalla Lufthansa che ha provveduto, laddove possibile, a riproteggerli già nella giornata odierna su altri voli per la Germania. Al momento, a Fiumicino non si registrano pertanto disagi o file di passeggeri in attesa.

Nel link si dice che oggi dovrebbero essere comunicate le date degli scioperi, che voi sappiate quale è il preavviso imposto dalla normativa tedesca?
Da quello che sapevo, in Germania non vi è una specifica regolamentazione di legge riguardo il diritto di sciopero, con un preavviso che può essere anche di sole 24 ore.
