Resumen

El Secretario de Transporte, Sean Duffy, advierte a los controladores de tráfico aéreo que las ausencias injustificadas durante el cierre del gobierno podrían llevar a la terminación de su empleo, mientras que la Asociación Nacional de Controladores de Tráfico Aéreo insta a sus miembros a continuar trabajando.

El Secretario de Transporte, Sean Duffy, ha advertido a los controladores de tráfico aéreo que las ausencias injustificadas durante el actual cierre del gobierno podrían resultar en la terminación de su empleo.

"Si tenemos a algunos de nuestro personal que no están tan dedicados como necesitamos, los dejaremos ir", declaró Duffy, señalando que más del 90% de los controladores han estado presentándose a trabajar a pesar del cierre.

La Asociación Nacional de Controladores de Tráfico Aéreo (NATCA) también ha instado a sus miembros a continuar trabajando, enfatizando que las acciones coordinadas que interrumpan el sistema nacional del espacio aéreo son ilegales y podrían poner en riesgo sus carreras.

Los aeropuertos en todo el país han experimentado retrasos debido a la escasez de personal, con impactos significativos en aeropuertos más pequeños como Burbank, California, y Nashville, Tennessee, así como en centros importantes como Newark, Nueva Jersey, Chicago, Denver y Dallas-Fort Worth.

Duffy reconoció las dificultades financieras que enfrentan los controladores que trabajan sin pago y ha priorizado aumentar la contratación para abordar la escasez crítica en los próximos años.

El presidente de NATCA, Nick Daniels, destacó el estrés que enfrentan los controladores, señalando que algunos podrían necesitar tomar segundos empleos para llegar a fin de mes durante el cierre.

La situación subraya los desafíos que enfrentan los empleados federales esenciales durante el cierre y el posible impacto en el sistema de viajes aéreos del país.
