ITF calls for "stakeholder dialogue" to solve aviation crisis
29 Janeiro 2010
The ITF today urged those involved in civil aviation to join forces in an effort to solve the crisis in the industry and build a sustainable future. The move came after the International Air Transport Association (IATA) released figures showing the worst decline in air passenger traffic since the second world war.
The ITF wrote to employers, governments and international bodies such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the IATA and the International Labour Organization (ILO), inviting them to support the establishment of a “stakeholder dialogue”.
Addressing the heads of those organisations, ITF civil aviation secretary Gabriel Mocho explained: “The aim of this dialogue would be to develop a socially acceptable response to the current economic crisis and a strategy for promoting sustainable growth, stability and decent standards in our industry, which is currently characterised by volatility. The crisis has demonstrated very clearly how damaging this volatility can be not just to workers, but also to companies and to government finances.
“The ITF and its unions also believe that now is the time for the key stakeholders to show leadership and foresight, and to abandon the prevalent short-term mentality in order to build an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable future for the industry.”
He concluded: “I hope that as the key international institutions in the aviation industry, ICAO, IATA and the ILO will agree to participate in such a dialogue and demonstrate willingness to engage with the concerns of workers to address the growing disquiet within this large stakeholder group.”
The letter were accompanied by a copy of the statement agreed by representatives of the ITF's member aviation unions.
