Trade unions and Czech Airlines managements are discussing wage cuts to save the struggling carrier. Union representatives said the previous demand had been for a wage cut of a third of salaries, but that management was now asking for 40%. After 180 employees were made redundant in October 2014, unions and managements have been in negotiations over a sober new collective agreement. According to the trade unions each new proposal submitted by the management is worse than the previous one.
