This is “a completely exaggerated dramatization,” said Ingolf Schumacher, Chairman of the tariff policy in the Cockpit. “Just in the area in which the allegedly overpaid pilots are employed, earn Lufthansa good money.” the Cockpit spokesman Jörg Handwerg, Lufthansa offered to increase “should be compensated in another place”. “That would be a zero round,” he told the “Ruhr Nachrichten”. The Management was not so far “to even recognize the willingness, in principle, to a fair salary adjustment”. As long as this does not change, a mediation “little sense”. A spokesman for the Lufthansa pointed out that the pilots of each year a salary increase of an average of three percent. The term “zero-round” to meet the individual pilots. The outcome of tariff negotiations would have to be added accordingly to the automatic increase. calls, in the light of the duration of strikes, the CDU called on the profile, a law for the compulsory arbitration of collective fight. Needed it was now “urgently the possibility of compulsory arbitration,” said Union group Vice Michael Fuchs (CDU), the “image”-newspaper. Federal labour Minister Andrea Nahles (SPD) is now “required to act accordingly”. Nahles’ Ministry rejected the proposal. A legal arrangement of state compulsory arbitration would massively intervene in the autonomy of collective bargaining and “in conflict with the state’s obligation of Neutrality in the case of collective disputes”, a spokesman said.
