Deal Includes Workforce Changes to Boost Efficiency
The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Air Traffic Controllers Association have agreed on a deal that includes a 2.8% pay increase for air traffic controllers. The agreement requires controllers to ‘badge in’ and ‘badge out’ of facilities and builds shifts around expected workload and operational requirements. The pay bump, approved by Congress in April, was withheld until the union agreed to demands that the regulator said would increase efficiency. The agreement was reported by SupplyChainBrain.
