Air France conflict This document is an article entitled Air France: after an agitated day, the direction claims to be ready to resume the negotiations. It was taken from a french newspaper « le monde » published on october 5th 2015. This text focuses on the la crise chez AF et plus précisément sur la colère des employés d’AF suite à l’annonce de milliers de suppressions de poste. So the question is Comment expliquer la colère des employés d’Air France ? To begin with I will explain the reasons of the conflict in Air France In recent years, Air France is confronted with a rather significant reduction in its growth. It makes less and less profits because of the increase of the competition and especially the low-cost.To be more competitive, Air France want to set up an alternative plan named « perform ». The measures are pretty drastic since it lead to o the abolition of thousands posts. To be more precise, 300 airline pilots, 900 stewards and stewardess and finally 700 ground staff if not more would lose their jobs. So the situation is noticeably more and more strained What is worst is all of this is that trade unions and Air force cannot reach an agreement. Indeed, AF want his employees to work more without being paid more but employees refuse. The situation is critical, going from bad to worse. SInce the arrival of the new CEO 2011, almost 15000 people have lost their job.
