The airline industry: labor relations in the era of deregulation, mergers, bankruptcies, and layoffs

Article Abstract:

At one time the airline industry had a record of continuous growth spanning several decades. It was assumed that business would keep improving and that a n airline career could be counted on for life. The 1980s and its fuel crises, deregulation, fare wars, mergers, strong global competition, war and international terrorism changed all of this. It is likely that the same forces that have reduced the North American picture to a handful of successful companies will do the same globally. Labor and management must form a partnership to meet the challenges ahead.
