Dear colleagues, once again we request your help to carry out a study that supports the defense of our working conditions, by completing a short SURVEY. You will find all the related info in the attached text.

We would ask you to complete this survey as soon as possible, but by Friday 15th October at the latest.

On July 8, 2021, a debate was held in the European Parliament, with the assistance of a representative of the European Commission, about the need to defend our social and labor conditions and avoid social dumping, with the intervention of two Spanish MEPs.

The questions asked by MEPs, were on the table largely thanks to the insistence and lobbying carried out by the unions that are part of the ETF, including SITCPLA, coordinated through said Federation.

You can see the debate and its transcript here & here.

Here you can read ETF’s new statement, regarding the European aviation sector and the need for stability and support to survive.

SITCPLA today celebrates, in collaboration with the ITF and trade unions and associations around the world, the International Cabin Crew Day and joins in support their professionalism, helping to safeguard safety on board the planes every day of the year.

Aviation unions call for universal access to COVID-19 vaccines and treatment.

ITF called this week for governments to pass an emergency waiver to grant universal access to Covid-19 vaccines, treatments and equipment.

The ITF Civil Aviation Section Committee raised urgent concerns at its meeting last week on vaccine inequality. The Committee stated strongly that this is an emergency, a moral question and an industrial question. As such, aviation unions must join the public calls for a waiver:

The recovery of aviation is tied to global recovery from the pandemic.

It is very clear we will not recover until everyone recovers.
