KLM seeks cabin crew productivity agreement
KLM is reorganising cabin crew structures to achieve 4% productivity gains under Air France-KLM’s Perform 2020 strategy. Under the plan, KLM wants to move from 2 pursers overseeing World Business Class on intercontinental flights to just 1, with the other purser working in-team. “This would make it possible to achieve the productivity gains required,” KLM said. The carrier wants to roll this out for selected destinations from the start of the winter schedule, but this is not possible under the current collective labour agreement (CLA). “Because of the deadlock in the pension negotiations, the cabin unions are currently refusing to join KLM in talks. KLM has therefore felt compelled to seek an alternative solution within the possibilities offered by the current CLA,” KLM said. <br/>
