交通部长警告空中交通管制员在政府停摆期间不得无故缺勤

摘要

交通部长肖恩·达菲警告空中交通管制员,政府停摆期间无故缺勤可能导致解雇,而全国空中交通管制员协会呼吁会员继续工作。

交通部长肖恩·达菲警告空中交通管制员,政府持续停摆期间无故缺勤可能导致被解雇。

“如果我们有一些员工不像我们所需的那样敬业,我们将让他们离开,”达菲表示,并指出尽管停摆,超过90%的管制员仍然坚持上班。

全国空中交通管制员协会(NATCA)也敦促其会员继续工作,强调任何协调行动扰乱国家空域系统都是非法的,可能危及他们的职业生涯。

由于人员短缺,全国各地机场均出现延误,影响尤为显著的包括加利福尼亚州伯班克和田纳西州纳什维尔等小型机场,以及新泽西州纽瓦克、芝加哥、丹佛和达拉斯-沃斯堡等主要枢纽机场。

达菲承认管制员在无薪工作的情况下面临经济困难,并已将增加招聘作为未来几年解决关键人员短缺的优先事项。

NATCA主席尼克·丹尼尔斯强调管制员所承受的压力,指出一些人可能需要在停摆期间兼职以维持生计。

这一情况凸显了政府停摆期间关键联邦雇员面临的挑战,以及对国家航空旅行系统可能产生的影响。
