German union attacks Air Berlin administrators for decision delay

A German union criticised Air Berlin’s administrators for delaying a decision on a carve-up of the insolvent airline until after this month’s election, saying it was irresponsible to leave thousands of jobs in the balance. Administrators are seeking to sell the business, with bids due to be submitted by 2 p.m. Friday. However, a final decision has been pushed back to Sept. 25, the day after Germany’s national election and four days later than previously planned. “This postponement is at the expenses of the workers, who want a decision on their jobs and their future,” Verdi union board member Christine Behle said Friday. <br/>
