Southwest Airlines and the Transport Workers Union Local 550 (TWU 550) have reached a tentative agreement for the airline's dispatch employees.
“This agreement rewards our dispatch employees for their many contributions while also supporting the needs of our business,” said Adam Carlisle, Vice President Labor Relations at Southwest Airlines. “I appreciate the partnership and dedication from both negotiating teams as they worked to reach this agreement.”
This tentative agreement covers Southwest's more than 450 Flight Dispatchers, Assistant Dispatchers, Flight Superintendents, Dispatch Specialists and Dispatch ATC Specialists. The TWU 550 will share details directly with its members about the agreement and the voting process.
