Already mobilized this Thursday, the employees of the Roissy-Charles de Gaulle and Orly platforms have decided to relaunch new actions from


It is a complicated start to the holidays which is announced on July 2 for travelers in airports.

In a leaflet published this Friday after a general meeting, the unions CGT, FO, CFDT, CFTC, Sud, Unsa and Solidaires call for a new strike on Saturday July 2 at Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport (Val d'Oise).

In Orly (Val-de-Marne), an identical movement is planned.

All airport personnel are concerned by the call: from Aéroports de Paris (ADP) employees to security agents who provide control inspection points on behalf of private companies.

Already strongly mobilized this Thursday, airport staff are demanding a general salary increase of 300 euros.

Despite a procession which brought together between 800 and 1,000 people and a quarter of the flights canceled at Roissy at the request of the General Directorate of Civil Aviation (DGAC), the claim of the demonstrators was not satisfied.

More than 1,300 departures at ADP

“The air transport crisis is a pretext for employers to reduce wages and staffing for a single purpose: to increase shareholder dividends, denounce the unions in their leaflet.

The 300 euros are more than legitimate in view of the huge profits of companies.

“To deal with the health crisis, employees had to accept salary cuts of around 18% by eliminating bonuses and allowances.

There had been big strikes last year and those who did not sign this amendment, 180 people, were dismissed, recalls a CGT official for ADP in Orly.

1,150 people also left as part of a collective contractual break.

It cost the company 100 million euros, which recovered 60 million euros thanks to the savings made from the endorsement.

Now that the traffic is picking up, we can't go back to full speed with degraded working conditions and wages.

Contacted, the communication from the ADP group emphasizes having “announced a resumption of wage negotiations on June 14”.
