NOTICE – AIR CANADA YYZ MEMBERSHIP-TOW SUBCONTRACTING UPDATE
FEBRUARY 7, 2023
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
We are writing to inform you that the Company has advised your Union that they will no longer require the assistance of a third party for the towing of aircraft, effective immediately. All towing services will now be performed in-house.
The Company advises they are confident they are on a path which will allow them to maintain towing operations, while utilizing our membership only. However, as this cyclical issue has occurred several times in the past, they have given your Union their commitment to disclose any potential staffing shortage issues well ahead of time, which will allow us to make informed decisions and provide advanced notice to our membership.
The Union would like to thank you all for your continued support.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to your General Chairperson or Local Shop Committee.
In solidarity,
Mahmoud Khatib
General Chairperson
Central Region
