Ryanair dispute mediation to take at least 3 days
Talks on a resolution of the dispute between Ryanair and a group of its Irish pilots will take at least 3 days, it has emerged. Ryanair and the Irish Airline Pilots’ Association (Ialpa) – part of trade union Fórsa – met mediator Kieran Mulvey Monday in an effort to settle differences that have led to 5 strikes at the airline over the past month. Mulvey told the parties he has set aside 3 days, Monday to Wednesday, for the talks and he asked the sides to refrain from public comment during the mediation. Ryanair last week proposed Mulvey, a former chairman of the Workplace Relations Commission, as an independent mediator, following calls by Ialpa-Fórsa, which represents the pilots, for independent third-party involvement. About 100 of Ryanair’s 350 Irish-based pilots held their fifth 1-day strike Friday. <br/>
