Bollywood Fever: Scandinavian airline SAS has successfully reached a wage agreement with its cabin crew in Norway, bringing an end to a strike that had disrupted numerous flights since late last week.Â
The Norwegian Federation of Trade Unions (LO) announced the deal on Tuesday, marking a significant victory for the striking workers.
“This is a big and important win for our members,” said Joern Eggum, leader of the LO, in a statement.
He highlighted that the agreement includes concessions on pay and working conditions, which had been the main points of contention leading to the strike.
SAS has not yet issued a comment on the resolution of the strike, and a smaller labor union involved in the strike has not confirmed whether it has also called off its action.
The strike, which began on Friday, involved around 120 SAS employees. It caused considerable disruption, stranding passengers over the weekend and leading to the cancellation of approximately 50 flights on Monday.
The workers initiated the strike after wage negotiations with the airline broke down, pressing for improved salaries and better working conditions.
With the agreement now in place, SAS is expected to resume normal operations, much to the relief of passengers and the airline alike.
The resolution of this labor dispute underscores the importance of dialogue and negotiation in addressing workers’ concerns, particularly in industries as critical as air travel.
