The CWA negotiations took place on April 8th and 11th, representing the second round of discussions since the CEO joined these talks. In this regard we see a genuine commitment to avoid delays.
We would like to keep everyone informed about the progress, however there is actually not much to say at this point. There was hope for significant movement towards our claims but in reality, there remains a significant gap between the respective positions on the most important items. Some CWA text changes were presented, and we requested counterproposals from management.
All parties now have a bit of homework in preparation for the next meetings which are now scheduled on 26th and 30th of April.
