The full story
Norwegian union Fellesforbundet announced a major sympathy strike in support of SAS Link cabin crew who have been on strike for two weeks after rejecting a mediation proposal. According to the union, 610 additional workers across Oslo and Bergen—including ground staff from SAS Ground Handling at Oslo Gardermoen and Aviator Airport Alliance at Bergen—are scheduled to walk out starting November 24. The original dispute centers on dissatisfaction with the low wage level and a payment system that relies heavily on variable additions instead of stable base pay. Union representatives stated that the action is intended to force movement in negotiations, as no contact between the parties had occurred following the initial strike.
