Kenya aviation unions vs Airline management and government.
The Kenya Aviation Workers Union (KAWU) represents aviation workers in Kenya, including those at Kenya Airways and the Kenya Airports Authority.
Airline management and government authorities, such as the Transport Ministry, oversee the aviation sector and manage airports and airlines.
The conflict arises from workers' grievances over pay, union recognition, and collective bargaining.
KAWU has accused management of unfair staff hiring practices, poor compensation, and proposed changes to the management of Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
These issues led to a strike notice and subsequent industrial action that disrupted flights at major airports.
The strike was resolved with a return-to-work agreement, but underlying disputes remain unresolved.
KAWU had previously reached a return-to-work agreement with the government and aviation agencies in February, indicating ongoing tensions.
The dispute highlights the challenges in balancing workers' rights with operational and managerial decisions in Kenya's aviation industry.
