Aéroports de Paris SA: Groupe ADP initiates negotiations with trade
unions
PRESS RELEASE
July 2020, 9th
Aéroports de Paris SAGroupe ADP initiates
negotiations with trade unions in order to make the adjustments of
its social and economic model required by the crisis
While air traffic had until now been under an
almost uninterrupted growth for 50 years, leading to an increased
competition between the major international hubs, the crisis linked
to the COVID-19 epidemic led to a sudden stop in air transport. It
turns out now that the traffic recovery will be very gradual, with
a return to the 2019 level expected between 2024 and 2027.
Groupe ADP has so far been structurally
organized to address a significant development of its activities
both in France and abroad, through its businesses and its dynamic
social, wage and financial structure.
Following the pandemic and the lasting upheavals
it has triggered, Groupe ADP needs to adapt and moves from a
development-supporting model to a model managing a situation of
reduced activities and investments. Thus, the 2016-2020 Economic
Regulation Agreement for the Parisian platforms has been terminated
with the agreement of the State. The process of drawing up a new
agreement has been suspended.
In this new operational and financial
environment, the strategic orientations of Groupe ADP need to be
revised. Groupe ADP gives itself three years (2021-2023) to give
the company an opportunity to return to a profitable and
sustainable growth.
During an extraordinary social works committee
which was held on 9 July, it had been proposed to the employees
representatives to initiate negotiations in order to adapt the
economic and social model of the parent company ADP SA, using three
tools provided by the labour code, each of them requiring a
majority agreement:
- an agreement on a long-term partial activity, in order to face
a decline in activity for the professions concerned;
- a collective performance agreement, in order to preserve
employment, become more agile and modernize the relationship with
work ;
- a collective mutually agreed termination device in order to
accompany the choices of each employee.
By offering the use of such tools, Groupe ADP
makes the choice in favour of social dialogue, responsibility and
solidarity. The aim is to mobilise all the solutions offered by the
social dialogue in order to avoid the loss of skills and keep the
competitivity of our industrial tool.
Augustin de Romanet Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of Aéroports de Paris SA-Groupe ADP stated:
"In light of an exceptional crisis in its
brutality and scale, we give ourselves three years, until 2023, to
bring the company back on the track of a profitable and sustainable
growth. A successful recovery needs shared efforts from all the
company's stakeholders. Therefore, confident in the spirit of
responsibility of each, we would like to set a framework that gives
all its chances to the social dialogue and makes it possible to
save jobs as much as possible."
