Kenya Airline Pilots Association (KALPA) call off strike notice
The Kenya Airline Pilots Association (KALPA) has called off their strike notice.
This follows Tuesday ruling by the Employment and Labor Relations Court which ordered the pilots to resume work.
In a statement, Kalpa withdrew their strike notice and urged their members to resume duty on Wednesday, November 9, 2022, at 6 am.
“Members are also urged to report to the Executive Council any incident of victimisation or disciplinary action that may be taken contrary to the court’s orders,” Kalpa said.
The pilots association said they regretted the disruption and inconvenience to KQ guests and urged their members to immediately restore normalcy to operations.
Kalpa launched the strike at Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on Saturday, defying a court order issued last week against the industrial action.
Labour Relations Court judge Anna Mwaure on Tuesday ordered “the Kenya Airways pilots to resume their duties as pilots by 6:00 am on November 9, 2022, unconditionally”.
