Strike at LATAM
When asked about the mass layoffs, the strike at his company and how the organization would be in the market, the CEO of LATAM got straight to the point and said: “I don't need the market, I need money”.
Without the dispatch of technicians who were also on strike, the planes could not leave for their destinations, it ended up that many people were also harmed by having to reallocate their flights.
The employees refused to carry out their activities until 17 pm, two hours later there was a meeting and both returned to their normal activities.
