Atlas Air crewmembers ratify labor agreement
Atlas Air crewmembers represented by the Air Line Pilots Association
have
voted to ratify the tentative labor agreement reached between Atlas Air
and ALPA on June 27.
The 42-month contract, the first between Atlas Air and crewmembers,
takes
effect on August 1.
Again, the contract has been ratified. Thank you.
Among other items, it provides for a first- year pay increase in hourly
pay rates of 17 percent, 6 percent increases each of the succeeding
three
years, as well as profit sharing and stock options. The contract also
offers several quality-of-life improvements, including reduced workdays
and travel assistance for crewmembers living away from their base.
“Ratification of this contract is an important milestone for Atlas
Air,”
says CEO Rick Shuyler. “With nearly a four-year commitment from our
crewmembers, we will be able to enter long-term contracts with our
airline
customers confident of our ability to continue to provide them with the
reliable and low-cost service that they deserve. This agreement is good
for Atlas Air and good for our crewmembers.”
