Lufthansa new deal with UFO to be rejected

Lufthansa’s significantly improved offer the German cabin crew union UFO on Thursday is not expected to be accepted, report various media outlets. If the deal is rejected, strike action could be initiated. Talks will continue this week. UFO said in a statement that Lufthansa had made extra requirements which would reduce pension provision for all employees as well as dramatically worsen pay and working conditions for cabin crew. “Should there be no significant change, the union believes that industrial action will be necessary,” the union said.
