Airlines Global Day of Action against Outsourcing – 27 September 2012

Outsourcing is happening everywhere in the airline industry. Companies outsource in order to increase profits. A big part of outsourcing is the attempt to break our unions. It is via unions that we win better wages and conditions.
 
Workers resist outsourcing by fighting against it at their workplaces. But this is not enough. Employers are well organised internationally and have operations across borders. We also need to co-ordinate our actions internationally.
 
If airline workers take industrial action, on the 27th of September, in a co-ordinated way, all over the world, we will be stronger and more effective.
