Chicago Federation of Labor: ORD Air Rage Town Hall

Hilton Chicago O’Hare Ballroom

As many as 10 million passengers fly through Chicago’s O’Hare and Midway Airports monthly. As they travel through Chicago’s airports, they will see and interact with dozens of unionized airport workers along the way. Union members from across the labor movement –public sector, service sector, industrial/transportation sector, and building and construction trades – work at Chicago’s two airports. Because of the importance of organized labor to the smooth and successful operations at O’Hare and Midway Airports, the Chicago Federation of Labor (CFL) convened its inaugural Airport Labor Committee (ALC) on June 20, 2019.
Aviation workers and airport workers have seen an enormous increase in physical and verbal abuse. The CFL Airport Labor Committee town hall will focus on passenger rage, both in the airports and in the sky, and, if possible, come up with solutions and responses.
APFA actively participates in the CFL, and all APFA members are welcomed to join APFA ORD Base Leadership and Government Affairs Representatives at the town hall, regardless of your crew base.
In Solidarity,
Susan Wroble
