to improving women’s access to the
different jobs within the company
and assuring that women and men
progress equally in their careers. In
line with these aims, the agreement
seeks to facilitate the balance between
work and family through specific measures
including:
• Meeting necessary child care costs
when professional training takes place
outside of normal working hours;
• Reduced hours of work during
pregnancy;
• Four years parental leave which
counts for length of service;
• Days off to care for sick children; and
• Access to part-time work and other
changes to work or to working hours
that allow workers to reconcile family
and working life.
Aerospace company
signs equality agreement
Budgets for salary increases for men
and women will be at least proportional
to the ratio of women in each professional
category. Individual promotions
will need to reflect overall numbers of
men and women.
The agreement commits EADS to
actively promoting a mix of men and
women in occupations and a diversification
of jobs performed by women in the
company. The company will promote
jobs in aerospace among women. A target
has been set of 20% female recruitment
across all professional categories.
For their part, the unions undertake
to improve the representation of women
on candidate lists for elections, to
achieve the same proportion of women
as are represented as employees. JH

Swiss private sector unions merge
BASEL SWITZERLAND A new union, regrouping
workers in the private sector, was
established in Switzerland on October
16. SIB (Building and Wood Workers’
Union), FCTA (Commerce, Food and
Transport), Unia (tertiary sector) and
IMF-affiliate FTMH/SMUV agreed
by an overwhelming majority to merge
into the single organisation, UNIA.
With 200,000 members in 14 regions
and 20,000 shop-stewards, the new
Swiss union is a political force to be
reckoned with, able to mobilize and
represent workers on the political level
and launch referendums and popular
initiatives. UNIA is subdivided into
four sectors: industry, construction
and civil engineering, crafts and the
tertiary sector.
Renzo Ambrosetti, former FTMH
president and now co-president of the
new union, said that this merger was
an ambitious but necessary project to
advance the interests of working people
and union members at a time when
workers’ rights and social achievements
were under attack from neoliberal
forces. AG

White-collar workers at
Ford vote to join UAW
DETROIT USA Engineers at Ford in
Allen Park, Detroit have voted to
join the United Auto Workers
(UAW). According to local news
reports, nearly 60 per cent of the
153 employees who cast ballots
voted for union representation.
The white-collar workers called
for the vote after working months
of unpaid overtime. Despite Ford’s
move to drop changes to its overtime
policies, the workers still supported
the membership drive.
Anne-Marie Mureau, head of
IMF’s department for non-manual
workers, said, “trade unions must
meet the challenge of organising
and representing the needs of nonmanual
workers. This is not an easy
task. This vote at Ford in Detroit
represents an important breakthrough
for UAW.” AG
US Airways to return
maintenance work
USA On October 1, US Airways was
ordered to return maintenance
work to its operations in Pittsburgh.
An arbitration panel ruled
that US Airways violated its contract
with mechanics when it transferred
maintenance work to a company
in Alabama in October 2003.
The decision is a victory for
the International Association of
Machinists and Aerospace Workers
(IAM), following its year-long
dispute over the subcontracting of
the airline’s Airbus aircraft heavy
maintenance work.
The parties have been ordered
to meet and discuss how affected
employees will be compensated. AG
