Representatives from Envoy and the TWU negotiated a six-year agreement that raises wages, enhances work rules, improves benefits, and recognizes the valuable contributions of our Aircraft Dispatch employees who work in the carrier\u2019s Systems Operation Control center, pre-planning and dispatching Envoy\u2019s 1,000 daily flights.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy thanks to the negotiating teams at Envoy and the TWU for their efforts to reach a mutually beneficial agreement,\u201d said Dee Temples<\/strong>, Senior Vice President Air Operations. \u201cMuch work and discussion went into creating an agreement that would support Envoy\u2019s growth and create a stronger and more collaborative working relationship for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n Full details of the Tentative Agreement will be provided to the membership by the TWU and sent to employees for ratification.<\/p>\n \u201cThe TWU is proud to have reached an agreement that benefits both our long-tenured and newer TWU members. It provides better wages, long term job security and returns our long-tenured members back as leaders within the industry,\u201d said TWU Air Division Director Mike Mayes<\/strong>. \u201cRatification and retention bonuses will provide members and their families some extra cushioning \u2013 paving a path to stability for our TWU Dispatchers now and for future generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cEnvoy\u2019s Dispatchers and Operations Coordinators play a crucial role in the safe and successful operation of our company on a daily basis,\u201d added Temples. \u201cWe look forward to this deal\u2019s ratification, so our employees can begin receiving the enhanced compensation as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n Above photo: Systems Operation Control (SOC) at Envoy Headquarters.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Envoy Air Inc., the largest wholly owned regional airline subsidiary of American Airlines Group (AAG) announced it has reached a tentative agreement with the Transport Workers Union (TWU) representing the carrier\u2019s Dispatchers.
