PSA Airlines Flight Dispatchers Score Big with 15.5% Pay Hike!

Ladies and gentlemen, buckle up! We've got a major victory to report from the skies, and it's all about the power of collective bargaining. The Transport Workers Union of America just secured a massive 15.5% pay increase for Flight Dispatchers at PSA Airlines, represented by TWU Local 592. This isn't just a win; it's a game-changer!



Let's break it down: This 2.5-year contract extension is a lifeline for Flight Dispatchers who are relocating from Dayton, Ohio, to Charlotte, North Carolina. The immediate 11.5% pay increase, retroactive to April 1, is just the beginning. Two more raises of 2% are on the way, making PSA Flight Dispatchers the second highest paid in the industry for regional airlines. BOOM! That's what I call a major victory!

TWU Local 592 President Brian Bourbeau nailed it when he said, "We were able to quickly secure a major pay raise that addresses and goes beyond cost of living changes associated with the move from Dayton to Charlotte." This isn't just about the money; it's about respect and recognition for the hard work and dedication of these essential workers.

But wait, there's more! Andre Sutton, TWU Aviation Division Director, had this to say: "This deal makes PSA Flight Dispatchers the second highest paid in the industry for regional airlines. I’m pleased we were able to provide significant gains for Flight Dispatchers who had to make a life-changing move from Dayton to Charlotte." This is a testament to the power of union representation and the importance of fighting for what you deserve.

So, what does this mean for the rest of us? It means that when workers stand together, they can achieve incredible things. It means that companies need to step up and recognize the value of their employees. And it means that the future of labor negotiations is looking brighter than ever.

Do this! Support your local unions. Stand up for fair wages and working conditions. And remember, the power of collective bargaining is real, and it's here to stay. This is a no-brainer! The market hates uncertainty, but it loves a good win-win situation. And this, my friends, is a win-win for everyone involved.

So, let's celebrate this victory and keep pushing for more. Because when workers win, we all win. And that, my friends, is the power of collective bargaining. BOO-YAH!
