WISAG imposes new sackings at Frankfurt Airport
For three months, a group of ground workers at Frankfurt Airport has been fighting against their dismissal by service provider WISAG. With eight demonstrations and rallies so far and an eight-day hunger strike, these workers turned to their colleagues under the slogan, “Today it’s us tomorrow you!” and made their struggle known to the public.
The response of the WISAG group, which handles planes at Frankfurt’s Rhein-Main Airport, is even more brutal sackings. At the beginning of March, over 30 more long-serving employees, including some who are severely disabled, were given notice to quit at the end of June 2021. This became known on March 11, when workers gathered for another demonstration in front of the WISAG group headquarters in Frankfurt.
