France wants to restrict the right to strike: Air France pilots want to go on strike

A draft law that would restrict the right to strike in the transport sector will be debated in the French upper house on April 9, 2024. The SPAF union is up in arms against this and is calling on Air France pilots to go on strike.

The French government intends to restrict the right to strike in response to the fact that work stoppages in the transport sector have repeatedly paralyzed the country. The employee representatives want to prevent this and are calling on the Air France pilots to strike on April 15 and 16, 2024. Unless the measure is canceled beforehand, restrictions on air traffic are to be expected.
