A strike by Kenyan airport workers has been called off after the Kenya Aviation Workers Union (KAWU) reached an agreement with the Transport Cabinet Secretary, Davis Chirchir.
The KAWU union went on strike on Monday in a labour dispute with the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority, causing major disruption at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, one of the busiest airports in Africa.
The go-slow had kicked off on Monday, with aviation workers accusing KCA of stalled salary negotiations, delayed union remittances, and discrimination.
They also accuse the authority’s management of showing an unwillingness to resolve labour disputes that have persisted for more than a decade
