The joint committee is what is most important to us.
Our workplace is very complex. It covers the entire world: hotels, planes, transport. It is mostly the youngest employees who are the most vulnerable in all those contexts.
It is important that members receive support from the union and that they know that the union is as active as the employer.
It's very complex on the employer side too. It has the contracts and business ties with hotels. Sometimes, people can suffer various types of abuse. Passengers, as customers, must also be protected. There is also a power struggle between the crew members and the pilot who is in command, and sometimes for good reasons, for very good reasons. That said, investigations often end up being outside our area of jurisdiction. If it affects the pilots, another service takes care of it. It can also come from the client or the hotel. At that point, we have no follow-up. The victim we support cannot therefore be assured that the investigative work is done properly.
