Aer Lingus Strike Called Off
SIPTU has called off its planned two-hour work stoppage at Aer Lingus on Monday.
The move follows a meeting of shop stewards from the union at Aer Lingus who met today to discuss Monday's two-hour stoppage in a continuing dispute over pensions.
Yesterday, they secured clarifications of a five-point proposal devised by the employers’ body IBEC and the Irish Congress of Trade Unions.
Other unions welcomed the plan, which would see Aer Lingus management and unions enter a non-binding talks process involving the Labour Relations Commission and the Labour Court.
