Airport control Verdi wants your : no further conflict

At German airports, there will be, at the earliest, in the autumn of 2021 re-strike of the security personnel. Last Wednesday, the negotiators of the Federal Association of the aviation security company (BDLS) and Verdi agreed on only minor Changes to the tariff compromise of 24. January. The former understanding was in danger, as Verdi had its members vote for and 55 percent voted. Among other things, because there are in East Germany, the annoyance due to the alignment period of six years for certain Workers in the West German wage level. The corresponding Passage in the collective agreement will now be deleted. Verdi wants to enforce, instead, in the next tariff negotiations by the end of 2021, a faster approximation.

23 000 Employees

affected, According to information from the negotiating circles, the topic affects approximately 30 percent of the inspectors in the East of Germany. The employees are to be monitored by the airports staff. So-called air security assistants, who check passengers and baggage, will achieve their income up to 2021 in the West.

The controversy surrounding the payment of 23 000 employees of the air safety was compromised two months ago, the air traffic significantly. Verdi was the Berlin airports only a few hours of strike, then day work stoppages in Düsseldorf, Cologne/Bonn and Stuttgart, and, finally, an 18-hour warning strike in Frankfurt on the Main followed. The Confederation of employers ' associations criticized the Strikes because of their impact as disproportionate and called for a legal restriction of the working fight on the right.

Verdi wanted 20 Euro for all

Verdi had gone in the autumn of last year, with the objective of the tariff negotiations, to agree to all the employees an hourly wage of 20 euros. That would have meant for individual groups, an increase of more than 40 percent. In the end, it was 19,01 euros of 2021 for the Passenger. About the different groups of Employees and across regions, the parties agreed to annual increases of between 3.5 and 9,77% in three stages: 1. March 2019, it should give the first increase, the next then at the beginning of 2020 and 2021. For the air security assistants has already been backdated to 1. February more money, agreed. The is now nothing, since the majority of the Verdi members voted in a vote against the collective bargaining agreement. After the conversation with the employers last Wednesday, the Verdi want to let strategists are now at the beginning of April, once again, the tariff Commission vote. Only then the completion can be effective, so it will come out in may, the first increase in salary.

no-confidence vote of the members

By the voluntary members of the survey – not to be confused the fight is with the necessary ballot after a work – has brought Verdi in an awkward Situation: fare increases are coming later than we thought, and the members have rejected the conclusion that to achieve improvement, as you have presented in a further round of Negotiations with the employers. All in all, the members survey is a vote of confidence for the Verdi-rate strategists.

information from the negotiation, 1600 Verdi have members among the total of 23 000 checkers on the collective agreement from 24. January a vote. 920 were not, however, because there are just 20 euros hourly wage, and because the alignment in the East drags on. The East German Verdi members of the majority voted, but also the trade unionists in North Rhine-Westphalia, Bavaria and Hesse rejected the Tariff. The control at the Berlin airports. But you are now affected, because the tariff increase will come later.

There are no other negotiations

The service trade Union Verdi, the whole procedure is uncomfortable, and the negotiators need to ask themselves the question, whether you have driven with the massive Strikes the expectations of the members to the very top. After the completion of the renewed talks with the employers they wanted to inform the Public about the outcome, had informed the Union in mid-February, after the results of the member survey that was about it. However, in reality, Verdi wants to exit as noiselessly as possible, the collective bargaining round – and hopes to have as few outlets of frustrated Union members.

The security services at German airports are provided by seven private companies, including the market leader, Securitas. The companies have organised themselves in the BDLS, which has now been completed for the first time, a nationally uniform collective agreement. The seven companies at 13 airports on behalf of the Federal police, the passenger and baggage controls. An exception is Bavaria, Where the checks are carried out on private companies, which fall under the collective bargaining agreement of the public service. In principle, the control of the airports is a sovereign task, which is assigned by the Federal police on the way to an EU-wide tender for a period of six years, to private service providers.

special skill is not required

The employers had resisted in the negotiations against the contract claim, among other things, with the Argument that since 2011, the income of the air security assistants at the largest airports are already 44 per cent, had increased – although for the Job no special qualification is required. To be able to passengers at the airport control, you need to be been trained in aviation security assistant 160 hours. The content of the training is the Ministry of the interior, the Federal police is taking the exam.
