The union representing WestJet pilots estimates up to a third of their membership will take part in an 'informational picket' Monday to lean on the company.
WestJet, in its statement, said the company’s goal is “achieving an agreement that is competitive within Canada’s airline industry and ensures we have a long-term sustainable future,” but the union argues that the company isn’t facing the reality that its members are facing.
“They still fail to understand today’s labour market conditions and it’s leading to a mass exodus of our professional pilots,” Roberts said. “On average, a WestJet pilot is leaving our airline every 18 hours.” And WestJet’s pilots have an interesting point of leverage through their union, which is fresh off of success in negotiating favourable labour agreements with their U.S. counterparts such as American Airlines, Delta and United Airlines, said industry expert John Gradek.
