Seems like it’s a “wildcat strike” where some employees organize and strike silently without the consent or direction of their union.

Seems like it’s a “wildcat strike” where some employees organize and strike silently without the consent or direction of their union.
- mywittyname 5y agoThis kind of subverts union leadership though. How can the union leadership negotiate in good faith when there's no evidence that they are in a position to control or act on behalf of members? Then again, I think it's technically illegal for members of the airline industry to actively strike. So maybe this is how it's done for plausible deniability sake.
- q1w2 5y agoThe rumors are that it's due to the employee covid vaccine mandate.
- nemo44x 5y agoI think that's the reason for the wildcat strike - the union won't abide by it so a group of pilots who don't want the vaccine are not working to make their point to management. It's all hearsay though.
