U.S. Airline Labour Relations Under Deregulation

Abstract

This article discusses the impact of airline deregulation on labour relations. It looks at price competition, wage‐cutting, “hard‐nosed” bargaining, strike‐breaking cadres of permanent employees and the detailed effects of the changes in attitudes and the bargaining environment. The implications for and responses of both unions and management are examined.
