An argument repeated yesterday by François Fillon5 in 2007 while it increased during the same period in the EU27 from 20This is not to say that to be walking on the feetHappy initiative because since that time society Ulmann 12The anglonéerlandais especially has no other choiceThe challenges are changing over the yearsWe have not finished with the semantic confusionThe Government is committed to housing in residence to grant tax creditsIt has a double involvement for businessesHe learned there to work as a team including those of the labsThose of the French who have the chance to take the plane to go on holiday, not to mention all those who take it for professional reasons, may live a new day of galleys tomorrow after which had marked the last February vacation. At the end of a meeting of consultation, yesterday at the Directorate General of civil aviation (DGAC), the intersyndicale CGT-GSC-FO-Unsa/Iessa-Unsa/CNIB of air traffic controllers confirmed his notice of strike, from this evening until Thursday morning.
The DGAC issued a press release announcing that she had asked the airlines to cancel 50 percent of flights at Orly and 20 at Roissy-Charles de Gaulle (read box) in the evening. But it is the whole of the French sky that is likely to be partly paralyzed as early as this evening. Because even if the majority the controllers, the SNCTA Union, does not support this social movement (read below), the experience of the previous strike shows that a minority of strikers can heavily disrupt air traffic.
Jean Hédou, the Secretary General of the Federation equipment, environment, Transport, Services of Force Ouvrière, justifies the "Echos" this necessarily unpopular movement: "my comrades have shown a sacred understanding so far." They had obtained the principle of an Ombudsman and now sought to impose on them through an internal protocol to DGCA device which no one knows the contours. This is unacceptable!
Manage the increase in traffic
In this case, the origin of the conflict is the draft Treaty creating, in the single European sky, an air space in the France, the Germany, the Switzerland and the Benelux, which must be signed before the end of the year and ratified by end 2012. Thus, the France will be integrated into the Fabec (Fonctionnal Airspace Block Europe Central) that concentrates 55 of the air activity in Europe. The objective is to cope with the increase in air traffic - it could be 50 by 2025 - and to ensure improved safety of the aircraft by creating joint management of the European sky. The Fabec including will be in service of air routes more direct.
"We are not against the Fabec, but on the basis of a public service we believe that it is possible to operate on the basis of a cooperative system." "However, refers to a cohesive system with the collapse of the DGAC", insists Jean Hédou.
In a release, the intersyndicale recalled that in January the Government announced "that the France would defend the creation, by end of 2010, an operator of single air traffic control for the France, the Germany, the Switzerland and the Benelux countries", an announcement of the strikes in January and February last. Trade unions believe that "the creation of such a cohesive body (Fabec) lead inevitably to the dismantling of the DGAC, structure yet considered effective in terms of cost, security and service to users". In addition, added, "this merger would mean de facto out of all or part of the services and its staff in the framework of the State civil service". They also denounce a social agreement "in summer" with a "minority" of organizations, and which provides for "the removal of 495 jobs, the closure of half of organizations approach and regional aeronautical information services all controls".
With the DGAC, indicated, yesterday evening, that the whole of the trade union organizations were invited this afternoon to negotiate the social protocol of the FADEC system.
