Ryanair against right to strike

news 29 Mar 2018

The ITF/ETF fundamentally questions Ryanair’s attempt to replace striking workers.

The deployment of workers to break a strike constitutes a serious attack on the freedom of association, a freedom that is protected under international law.

Ryanair should instead, as it has previously committed to, reach agreement on trade union and collective bargaining rights.
