The day before Christmas was marked by delays in landings and takeoffs at Brazilian airports. For the fifth consecutive day, this Friday (23), aeronauts maintained the stoppage between 6 am and 8 am at the airports of Congonhas, Guarulhos, Viracopos, Galeão, Santos Dumont, Porto Alegre, Confins, Brasília and Fortaleza. Yesterday (22), the National Union of Aeronauts (SNA) rejected a new salary negotiation proposal to end the category strike.
In a virtual assembly – with 59.25% of votes against, 40.02% of votes in favor and 0.73% of abstentions – the regular aviation workers rejected the proposal presented by the airlines that provided for the total replacement of the inflation measured by the INPC (National Price Index Consumer) – in fixed and variable wages – plus 1% real increase. The readjustment would focus on national rates, salary floor, insurance, fines for non-compliance with the collective agreement and food stamps.
The aeronauts want a 5% salary increase and adjustment of working conditions, such as the time off and rules that prevent airlines from changing rest periods – waiting for crew members between flights of 3 hours during the day and 2 hours in the afternoon. night period.
In a note, the SNA highlighted that the category has been negotiating since the end of September and that all the proposals sent by the employers’ union were not consistent with the list of claims presented and, therefore, were rejected.
“The SNA remains open to negotiations, waiting for companies to submit a new, minimally acceptable proposal. If there is a proposal, it will be put to a vote and, if approved, the strike ends, if not, the strike continues indefinitely”, the union informed.
