Spanish union to take legal action against Ryanair over contracts
On Wednesday, the Spanish labor union SEPLA announced it will take legal actions against the Irish airline Ryanair for hiring Spanish pilots under what they say were illegal contracts according to Spanish law. The union plans to file two lawsuits on behalf of 500 Ryanair pilots based in Spain. Ryanair denies the allegations that they failed to bargain in good faith, although it only recently decided to bargain with unions, striking its first recognition agreement last week with the British pilot’s association.
