Jeg var på møte i HS` pensjonistforening i går og fikk høre at HS går godt og min pensjon er sikret. Jeg er glad jeg ikke har jobbet i LIAT:
AIRLINE FIRES UNION LEADER, SPARKS SICKOUT
Pilots at LIAT, a Caribbean airline, this week took action, crippling their employer with a sickout that cancelled 110 flights when their union leader was fired shortly after suggesting that pilots' pensions had been mismanaged by the airline. Captain Michael Blackburn had worked for LIAT for more than 35 years and chaired the Leeward Islands Airline Pilots Association (LIALPA). In November, Blackburn, as head of LIALPA, sent a letter to LIAT management stating that the carrier's decision to invest pilot pension funds into a now-failed investment program went against a court order and took place without consultation of company pilots. Blackburn also made public derogatory statements about the airline. Soon thereafter, the veteran captain was accused of a safety violation. Monday, he was dismissed. His fellow pilots responded, Tuesday, with a sickout action that cancelled nearly all LIAT flights. The union has vowed that the fight is not over.
