The air-traffic controllers are really cranking up the propaganda war, alleging that AENA, the airports authority, has been using an agreement whereby controllers can be called in to cover emergencies to the extent that it has become almost standard practice caused, not by excessive staff absence but by a lack of staff. In addition, it is said that AENA changed shifts of two controllers without giving the necessary month's notice that was agreed when the two sides went to arbitration last year.
It might be remembered that the arbitration resulted from the strike by controllers in Spain in December 2010, a dispute which has not been fully resolved by the legal system as there are outstanding cases against named controllers to be finally judged and which carry the possibility of lengthy prison sentences.
