"Air Canada and IAMAW Reach Agreement on Changes to Pension Plan Design; Current Employees Offered Choice of Pension Program; New Employees to Enroll in Defined Contribution Plan
   MONTREAL, March 31 /CNW Telbec/ - Air Canada and its largest union,
District Lodge 140 of the International Association of Machinists and
Aerospace Workers (IAMAW) announced today that a tentative agreement has been
reached to facilitate the Company's transition to a new Defined Contribution
(DC) pension arrangement. The IAMAW represents 11,500 technical operations,
airport ground service, clerical and finance branch personnel.
   The agreement provides all active and inactive (current) employees
represented by District 140 of the IAMAW with the freedom to choose between a
DC or a Defined Benefit (DB) program. All current employees who opt to enroll
in the DC plan would receive a bonus, concurrent to an Initial Public Offering
(IPO) of a restructured Air Canada equal to 10% of base salary provided that
the aggregate pool does not exceed 10% of the IPO. Any new employees hired
after the ratification of the agreement would automatically be enrolled in a
DC plan. The agreement is subject to membership ratification which is expected
to be completed by April 12, 2004 and to approval by Trinity Time Investment,
Air Canada's Equity Plan Sponsor.
   "I salute the leadership of District Lodge 140 of the IAMAW for their
decisive attempt to break the logjam currently threatening our successful
restructuring. I can't imagine a better outcome for our employees than the
freedom to choose the pension program best suited to their personal needs,"
said Robert Milton, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Today's
announcement represents a very significant step in ensuring Air Canada emerges
from CCAA a stronger airline thereby securing jobs for their membership. I
would urge all Air Canada's unions to put an end to the uncertainty facing our
employees by negotiating similar agreements to facilitate the changes to Air
Canada's pension program design," said Mr. Milton.
   "The restructuring process has been very difficult for our members but
throughout the process I have been committed to empowering the membership to
make their own decisions and that is what this agreement is about," said Jean
Jallet, National President and Directing General Chairperson, District Lodge
140 of the IAMAW.
   "This agreement provides all our members with the right to choose the
pension program that's best for them according to their personal
circumstances. There are no losers. I believe our members will view this as
the best option to ultimately secure their employment by ensuring Air Canada
emerges from CCAA with the support of a strong investor.
   "To demonstrate our commitment to the successful restructuring of Air
Canada, we will revalidate the Memorandum of Agreement on High Performance
Work Organization (HPWO) so that when we emerge from CCAA the membership of
the IAMAW will be active participants in a joint initiative of building from
the best practices of the two great airlines that now constitute Air Canada,"
said Mr. Jallet.
   A change in pension plan design allowing a phased transition to a DC plan
is one of the conditions precedent to Trinity Time Investment's agreement to
invest $650 million equity in a restructured Air Canada."

Die aktuellen Beschäftigen dürfen "wählen", die neuen werden sofort in flexiblere Pensionspläne reingeschickt. War als doch Poker.

Die Wahl wird so aussehen: "Also Mr. soundso, leider können wir es uns nicht mehr leisten, Sie weiterzubeschäftigen, Sie wissen schon, Ihre Pension... Aber sollten sie sich doch für den DC plan entscheiden..."

Aber alle haben das Gesicht gewahrt.

"Air Canada pension deal in dispute

By CRAIG WONG

2004-03-31 18:38:00
   
 
TORONTO (CP) - Conflicting announcements from Air Canada's largest union threatened what appeared to be a key agreement on pensions Wednesday that would have smoothed the bumpy path towards a restructuring of the insolvent airline.

Early Wednesday, the Montreal-based District lodge 140 of International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers announced a deal had been reached with the airline. Hours later, however, the union's national office in Toronto said the lodge did not have the authority to strike the deal.

The union infighting means the pension dispute continues to threaten an eventual restructuring of Air Canada, which faces an April 15 deadline to get a deal between its proposed main shareholder and the unions on changes to the pension plan.

The machinists said its Toronto headquarters told Air Canada months ago that it had taken over the bargaining on pension issues after the airline went into bankruptcy protection a year ago Thursday.

"There is no deal and Air Canada knows it," said Dave Ritchie, the Canadian leader of the international union.

"Our position on the pension issue with Air Canada remains unchanged and it will stay that way. Our members pensions are not negotiable."

Calls to the district lodge office, which is responsible for the Machinists' transportation sector in Canada, were not returned Wednesday.

However, in an earlier statement, the lodge said a deal had been reached that would give current employees a choice of staying in a defined-benefit plan or switching to a defined-contribution plan.

"This agreement provides all our members with the right to choose the pension program that's best for them according to their personal circumstances," said Jean Jallet, union president at district lodge 140.

Air Canada spokeswoman Laura Cooke said in the past, contracts between the airline and the Machinists union were negotiated with the district lodge.

"The May 2003 restructuring negotiations were conducted by Mr. Jallet and he also signed that agreement as well," Cooke said.

The pension deal appeared at first to shatter a united front the airline's unions had presented in opposing making any changes to their pension plans.

If the Machinists ended up breaking ranks, it would have ratcheted up the pressure on Air Canada's other unions to strike similar deals. The other unions have maintained that they've already agreed to give up more than $1 billion annually in concessions in return for protection of their pension plans.

Don Johnson, head of Air Canada Pilots Association, said Wednesday that his union's opposition to pension changes has not changed, but as always it would be willing to talk about it with the airline.

"We have a standing policy that if our company calls us and says we need to talk we go and we talk," Johnson said.

Gary Fane of the Canadian Auto Workers, which represents customer service staff at Air Canada, also said he's willing to listen, but he didn't know what the company would say.

"If they're saying to me exactly what they've been saying to me in the past, 'Just give it to us,' it will be difficult to imagine the union would do something like that," Fane said of the deal with the Machinists.

The agreement announced by the Machinists lodge - representing 11,500 technical operations, ground service, clerical and financial personnel - was similar to one that Trinity Time Investments, the proposed new controlling shareholder in Air Canada (TSX:AC), presented to non-union employees.

It is a compromise from an earlier proposal by Trinity that would have forced new and younger employees into a defined-contribution plan, while older employees and retirees would have remained on the defined-benefit plan.

Under the agreement with non-union workers, current employees who opt for the defined-contribution plan will receive a bonus of 10 per cent of their base annual salary. New employees will receive a defined-contribution plan.

Headed by Hong Kong businessman Victor Li, Trinity is reviewing its proposed $650-million investment in Air Canada and has threatened to walk away if the pension changes were not made.

Defined-contribution pensions are easier for a company to budget for, because if a defined-benefit plan's investments decline in value, the employer must make up the difference to pay predetermined benefits.

The agreement comes as the airline's board of directors reviews the airline's updated business plan and 2003 financial statements in which Air Canada is expected to report a massive loss.

Under its current agreement with Trinity and GE Capital Aviation Services, which is to provide $1.5 billion US in financing and restructure leases on 108 aircraft, Air Canada must emerge from creditor protection by the end of April.

The court overseeing Air Canada's restructuring extended the airline's creditor protection earlier this week to April 15, by which time Trinity is expected to decide whether to proceed with its investment and on what terms."

Da scheint es einen Konflikt zwischen der lokalen Gewerkschaftsvertretung und der Zentrale zu geben. Die Lokalen sind natürlich näher dran und kriegen wahrscheinlich Zunder von ihren Mitgliedern.

"Air Canada Pension 'Deal' Thwarted by Union Feud
Wed Mar 31, 6:44 PM ET  

By Charles Grandmont

MONTREAL (Reuters) - Air Canada said on Wednesday it had reached a key pension agreement with its largest union, but the Canadian head of the machinists union dismissed the airline's claim, saying there was no deal.

 

"Our members' pensions are not negotiable," said Dave Ritchie, Canadian general vice-president of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers.


Earlier in the day, Air Canada said it had reached a tentative agreement on pensions with Jean Jallet, the head of a local section of the union, which represents Air Canada's 11,500 maintenance and ground crew.


Air Canada chief executive Robert Milton praised the union for the "decisive attempt to break the logjam currently threatening our successful restructuring executive."


But Ritchie said Jallet had no authority to bargain on pensions issues, which are dealt with at a national level.


"There is no deal and Air Canada knows it," Ritchie said, adding that union lawyers warned the company months ago that pension issues could not be negotiated at the local level.


Air Canada said it still considered the tentative agreement to be valid and expects the union to complete a ratification vote by April 12.


"We have always reached agreements with Mr. Jallet and not the national office," Air Canada spokeswoman Isabelle Arthur said.


Jallet said union bylaws give him clear authority to negotiate the agreement on pensions.


"I don't understand what's going on. Quite frankly, there are political games going on," Jallet said.


"Maybe it's because I said I would run against him in the next elections," he said.


The machinists union was the first to agree to the pension overhaul demanded by Air Canada's new equity investor, Hong Kong businessman Victor Li.


Eight other unions, representing around two-thirds of the airline's workforce, still reject Li's revamped pension plan, even though Li has warned he would abandon his C$650 million ($500 million) investment if pensions are not changed.


"There is no discussion on the subject," a spokesman for the powerful Air Canada Pilots Association said on Wednesday.


"Right now, our position has not changed," said Pamela Sachs, head of the flight attendants union.


The unions argue they have already agreed to C$1.1 billion in labor cost concessions in exchange for a guarantee that their pensions would remain intact.


Li stands to get 31 percent of the airline once the restructuring is over, but he wants to reduce its risks and costs by shifting the pension plans to a defined contribution structure instead of a defined benefits structure.

 



Air Canada's C$8.5 billion pension plans have a deficit of C$1.2 billion. The airline is trying to convince regulators to let it spread its reimbursement over a 10-year period, twice the length required by law.

On Monday, the world's 11th largest airline won an extension of its bankruptcy protection until April 15 so it can try to break the impasse on the pension issues.

Further delays in the restructuring are also threatening C$1.8 billion in loans and aircraft financing deals the carrier has with General Electric Capital Corp. .

Air Canada stock gained 22 Canadian cents, or 20 percent, to C$1.32 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Wednesday, even though the airline has said the stock will be worthless once it emerges from court protection with a new equity structure."

Heute treffen sich Air Canada-Vertreter und Gewerkschaftsvertreter beim Insolvenz-Richter:

"Air Canada to Ask Bankruptcy Judge to Block Pension-Pact Review
April 2 (Bloomberg) -- Air Canada will today ask a bankruptcy judge to block the country's labor regulator from ruling on an agreement the insolvent carrier signed with its biggest union on pension-plan changes the company says it needs to emerge from creditor protection, according to court papers.

Air Canada said Wednesday it had a tentative agreement with Jean Jallet, president of Local 140 of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, covering 11,500 union workers. The accord was immediately disavowed by David Ritchie, national head of the union, who said Jallet wasn't authorized to negotiate on pensions.

Air Canada's lawyers said in the court documents they oppose Ritchie's unfair labor practice complaint against the company Ritchie filed the complaint with the Canada Industrial Relations Board, seeking to void the agreement. A decision by the board to scuttle the agreement would undermine Air Canada's efforts to keep alive Hong Kong businessman Victor Li's proposed C$650 million ($497 million) investment in the carrier.

Li has threatened to walk away from his investment, which will give him a 31 percent stake in Canada's biggest airline, without concessions on pensions from the company's 27,000 unionized workers, including pilots, flight attendants, the machinists and reservation agents.

Morning Meeting

Montreal-based Air Canada has been operating under protection from bankruptcy for the past year after amassing more than C$12 billion in debt and lease obligations.

Air Canada and Jallet and issued a press release that outlined a tentative agreement in which mechanics, bag handlers and clerical staff represented by the machinist's union would get bonuses if they switched pension plans. In the statement, the airline said current employees can choose to remain in a plan that guarantees benefits or switch to one whose payout is based on investment performance.

Sean Dewart, a lawyer for the union representing about 6,000 reservation agents, said attorneys for the other labor groups and Air Canada are scheduled to meet with Ontario Superior Court Justice James Farley, who's overseeing the Air Canada reorganization, at 9:30 a.m. Toronto time today. "

Es gibt da ein Forum der Beschäftigten der can. Luftfahrt (www.aeforum.com). Dort herrscht rege Diskussion über den Deal. Sie sagen, das Abkommen sei ganz in Ihrem Sinne und sind sauer auf den Boss in der Zentrale. Der hat ein Verfahren angestrengt gegen AC bei einer Schiedsstelle (CIRB). Die Mitglieder der Gewerkschaft schreiben an die Schiedsstelle, sie soll den Boss der Gewerkschaft abblitzen lassen. Hier einer der offenen Briefe im Wortlaut (die Gewerkschaft heißt IAMAW):

"Canadian Industrial Relations Board
Dear Sir
I am requesting your intervention in the matter of the District Local 140 of the IAMAW versus the national president of the same union as I believe that the president of said union is in breach of section 37 of the Canada Labour Act. The members of the district local have told their union that they want a vote on the pension issue at Air Canada and the president of the union is interfering in our collective and democratic right to have such a vote. Please intervene so that this vote will take place."

D.h. es gab eine Abstimmung unter den CA-Beschäftigten IAMAW-Mitgliedern und sie waren für den Deal, den dann der lokale Gewerkschaftsvertreter auch abgeschlossen hat.

Air Canada Reports 2003 Results; Current cash balance at $910 million
   MONTREAL, April 2 /CNW Telbec/ - Air Canada reported today an operating
loss before reorganization and restructuring items of $684 million for the
year ended December 31, 2003 compared to an operating loss before non-
recurring labour expenses of $192 million for the year ended December 31,
2002.
   On April 1, 2003, Air Canada obtained an order from the Ontario Superior
Court of Justice providing creditor protection under CCAA. Air Canada also
made a concurrent petition under Section 304 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
   As a result of restructuring under CCAA, the Corporation has and will
continue to record a number of significant reorganization and restructuring
items directly associated with the restructuring. These "reorganization and
restructuring items" represent revenues, expenses, gains and losses, and
provisions for losses that can be directly associated with the reorganization
and restructuring of the business under CCAA, and do not relate to the normal
operating expenses of the airline. For the year 2003, these mainly non-cash
reorganization and restructuring items amounted to $1,050 million.
   Including these reorganization and restructuring items, the net loss was
$1,867 million compared to a net loss of $828 million in 2002. In 2002, an
income tax valuation allowance was recorded to reduce the value of the
Mainline carrier's future income tax asset by its full carrying value of
$400 million. This allowance had no impact on Air Canada's cash position or
operating results.
   As at December 31, 2003, the Corporation's cash and cash equivalents
amounted to $670 million. At December 31, 2003, CDN$840 million was available
from the US$700 million debtor-in-possession (DIP) financing facility from GE
Canada Finance Holding Company. In January 2004, CDN$300 million of funds were
drawn from this facility.
   As at April 1, 2004, the Corporation's combined cash balance, measured on
the basis of cash in its Canadian and United States bank accounts, amounted to
an estimated $910 million remaining before taking into account the amounts
available under the DIP facility.
   "Our restructuring has become more challenging as a result of record high
fuel prices, increased domestic capacity by our low cost competitors and the
geopolitical issues faced by the airline industry as a whole", said Robert
Milton, President and Chief Executive Officer. "However, our 2004 revenues are
tracking in line with what we projected in our business plan last October.
Furthermore, we are seeing year over year unit cost declines in the range
of 14%. Our cash balances are healthy. We have made major progress on most key
aspects of our restructuring, including a significant fleet, debt and lease
restructuring, major reductions in supplier arrangements and changes to our
fare structures and distribution channels. We are well positioned to carry on
business effectively while seeking alternative equity arrangements in light of
today's announcement by Trinity Time Investment Limited that it is not seeking
extension of its Investment Agreement beyond April 30, 2004. We trust that our
unions and other stakeholders will recognize the urgency of resolving the
remaining obstacles to our exit from CCAA, particularly since the arrangements
with GECAS and Deutsche Bank also expire at the end of April, unless extended
by agreement.
   "The past year has been particularly difficult for Air Canada's
employees. I thank them for their hard work and dedication in taking care of
our customers whose continued support has been heartening. It remains business
as usual for our customers as it has throughout our restructuring," concluded
Mr. Milton.

Also wenn man den folgenden Artikel liest, kriegt man einen guten Eindruck, was da hinter den Kulissen vor sich geht:

http://cfcn.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/...M.20040405.wxaircanada0405

Wenn man das noch kombiniert mit der Tatsache, dass in dem Deal mit Trinity offensichtlich eine Klausel drin war, die die aktuellen Aktienbesitzer benachteiligt, dann könnte man auch auf die Idee kommen, dass da im Hintergrund von den Aktienbesitzern (auch Gewerkschaft?) hart gearbeitet wird, den Trinity-Deal zu torpedieren. Das schließe ich aus dem Satz in der Meldung in Posting 55:

"Air Canada stock gained 22 Canadian cents, or 20 percent, to C$1.32 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Wednesday, even though the airline has said the stock will be worthless once it emerges from court protection with a new equity structure."

Insofern könnte der Kurs heute sogar auch steigen, falls durch den Ausstieg von Li
eine "shareholder-value"-Lösung winkt. Dafür spricht, dass der ausstieg von Li schon am Freitag während der Börsenzeit bekannt wurde und der Kurs sogar anzog.

Da könnte man fast über spekulativen Nachkauf nachdenken!

"Prime minister urges Air Canada and its stakeholders to work to find deal
Mon Apr 5,11:41 AM ET  


TORONTO (CP) - Prime Minister Paul Martin has urged Air Canada, its unions and other stakeholders to work together in its restructuring, following a declaration by the airline's proposed new investor that he is set to walk away with his cash.


"You know, it's very, very important that all of the parties redouble our efforts to find a settlement," Martin said Monday at a stop in Orillia, Ont. "I think we all want to see a resolution to this and (Transport Minister) Tony Valeri is very actively involved."


Air Canada is looking for a new investor after Victor Li's Trinity Time Investments said late Friday it is prepared to withdraw its planned $650-million investment in the airline.


The deal fell apart after Air Canada unions refused to agree to restructure their pension plans.


In announcing it would not extend its proposal, Trinity also released Air Canada from the exclusivity obligations of the investment deal - thus allowing the airline to seek out another investor willing to fill the void.


Reports have suggested that some of Canada's largest pension funds are looking into a possible investment in Air Canada and have held preliminary talks with the airline.


Others that may be interested include Cerberus Capital Management, the New York investment firm whose bid lost out to Trinity, and conglomerate Onex, which made a hostile bid for the airline in 1999.


Air Canada has been operating under creditor protection since April 1 last year."

Air Canada sieht sich trotz zunehmender Konkurrenz im Plan

MONTREAL (Dow Jones-VWD)--Die Air Canada, Montreal, sieht sich trotz zunehmender Konkurrenz im Billigflugsegment auf der Einnahmenseite im Plan. Die Umsätze entwickelten sich wie im vergangenen Oktober geplant, erklärte CEO und President Robert Milton, bei Vorlage der Bilanz 2003 am Wochenende. Allerdings stehe die Restrukturierung der unter Gläubigerschutz arbeitenden Fluggesellschaft angesichts eines Kerosinpreises auf Rekordniveau vor neuen Herausforderungen. Als Folge der Kostensenkungen sei 2004 aber mit einem verbesserten operativen Ergebnis zu rechnen, heißt es im Geschäftsbericht des Unternehmens für das abgelaufene Jahr.

2003 beendete Air Canada mit einem auf 684 (192) Mio CAD erhöhten operativen Verlust, in dem die Kosten für Reorganisation und Restrukturierung des Unternehmens nicht enthalten sind. Im vierten Quartal fiel das operative Ergebnis mit -77 (-262) Mio CAD bei rückläufigen Umsätzen allerdings besser aus als im Vorjahreszeitraum. Unter dem Strich schlugen für 2003 insgesamt 1,05 Mrd CAD an Restrukturierungskosten zu Buche, überwiegend allerdings unbarer Natur. Der Nettoverlust kletterte damit auf 1,867 (0,828) Mrd CAD.

Im Laufe des Jahres will die Fluggesellschaft den seit 1. April bestehenden Gläubigerschutz wieder verlassen. Die Kapazitäten dürften im laufenden Jahr moderat steigen, die Umsätze aus dem Passagiergeschäft sollten steigen, hieß es weiter. Den Kassenbestand zu Monatsbeginn bezifferte Air Canada mit 910 Mio CAD.

wenn Air Canada kontinuierlich so weiter macht bzw. die Verhandlungen mit den Gewerkschaften positiv verlaufen, sehe ich hier auch sehr gute Chancen.
