there are indications that aviation industry unions will soon commence picketing of indigenous airlines, which disallow their workers to join the unions in the sector.
The unions are appalled that apart from the Aero Airlines, which allows its workers to join its activities, none of the indigenous operators allow their workers including engineers and pilots to unionise. At the moment, there are about seven airlines which strictly prevent their workforce from joining the unions.
Some of the airlines are Med-View, Arik, Chanchangi, Overland, IRS and Dana Airlines. A source close to the unions who does not want his name in print, confided that the unions are currently perfecting plans on how to sanction such airlines, adding that the decision emanated from the election of National Union of Air Transport Employees, NUATE, executives recently held in Bayelsa State.
