The press conference will take place at 11:30 on 2 June in the Ailesbury Room of the Clayton Hotel Ballsbridge, Merrion Rd, Dublin 4 (www.claytonhotelballsbridge.com), just minutes from the AGM.
The press conference will be hosted by Siptu (Services Industrial Professional and Technical Union). Please confirm attendance by emailing smillar@siptu.ie and dawson_sam@itf.org.uk
The press conference will follow the launch on 1 June of a new report that shows that, although the global airline industry is expected to make record profits of USD36.3 billion this year, airlines have created a race to the bottom, putting airport workers, safety and the quality of services under pressure. Also on 1 June workers in over 30 airports worldwide will display banners and leaflet fellow workers and/or passengers.
You will receive full details of all events, plus a copy of the report, in a press release on 31 May. You can also follow the events on 1 and 2 June on Twitter via the hashtag #AirportWorkers and at the dedicated Flickr site https://goo.gl/AIEw5I.
