Paris Airport Unions Threaten Strike, Risking Flight Disruptions to Morocco

The unions of the Paris airports (CGT, CFDT, FO and Unsa) threaten to go on strike on Wednesday, July 17 to denounce a "deterioration of working conditions" and demand a "bonus for all staff," a "massive" recruitment of 1,000 people and rest days during the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

In a press release quoted by Air Journal, they expressed their disapproval of the "unilateral decisions of the CEO of ADP to pay a bonus only to a part of the personnel" and launched a call for a strike to "obtain satisfaction" in the face of the "obstinate refusal of the management and in particular of the CEO of ADP underestimating the ultimatum launched by the united unions and the determination of the personnel."

This strike, if it were to be effective, would certainly disrupt air traffic to Morocco, the preferred destination of Moroccans in Europe and French tourists during the summer season.
