Hawaiian Airlines flight attendants to seek industry-standard wages in next round of talks
A union representing Hawaiian Airlines flight attendants said it expects to meet with the company once again this week in order to negotiate fair wages. The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, which held its first picket of 2020 at Daniel K. Inouye International last Wednesday says it has hired a financial consultant to present a wage assessment for flight attendants based on industry standards. Since November, when 99.9% of AFA members voted to authorise a strike, with 95.1% of members participating in the vote, the union and airline have been trying to agree on costing models that determine wages. “We have been haggling over the costing models,” said Sharon Soper, Master Executive Council president. “What the company has for their own costing model is not the standard costing model for the industry.” <br/>
