Norwegian pilots demand 600,000 in salary increase

Today, they earn around SEK 1.3 million, but the demands are a 40 percent salary increase over two years.

– We work six out of nine weekends and have the highest workload during the periods when you want to be off, summer and autumn holidays and during Christmas and other holidays. We must achieve a better agreement when it comes to work and private life, says Alf Hansen at NPU to the news agency NTB.

On the part of the pilots’ union, they have threatened to take 17 pilots out on strike starting this weekend, the number of pilots covered will then gradually increase.
