Back in 2009 a project was started to collect a pool of days in order to cover exceptional difficult situations some of us may be faced with during our career with Cargolux. The project was called Pilot Solidarity Days (PSD) and has been set up in agreement with Flight Operations Management and the ALPL. The intention of this project is solely to help colleagues in need and show solidarity within the pilot group.
This is the case today for our fellow colleague Sigrid Schulz.
Sigrid has long been suffering and only in recent months her doctors confirmed and began treatment for cancer. Unfortunately, Sigrid had used much of her sick leave during the time that it took for the doctors to diagnose the problem.
Today, after permanently losing her Medical Certificate, Sigrid has been reclassified as ground staff and is in danger of losing her contract as she runs out of sick leave.
We all hope that she will be able to continue her fight and endure the treatment so that she will be able to regain her strength.
In the spirit of solidarity, we ask you to donate any vacation or off days, which would enable her to continue to focus on her treatments without being burdened with the worry of her contract expiring.
If you would like to support Sigrid, please click here and indicate how many days you would like to donate.
On behalf of Sigrid we thank you for your solidarity and your participation!
