KLM plans to restructure 5,000 positions, including around 1,000 job cuts by 2028
The Dutch subsidiary of the airline group plans to restructure around 5,000 positions, including nearly 1,000 additional job cuts, as part of a reduction of nearly 15% of its workforce. According to AFP, management considers it possible to avoid outright layoffs.
Outsourcing, fleet and wages at the heart of KLM's plan
According to AFP, the Dutch airline intends to outsource part of its activities to external service providers and simplify its fleet. It is also seeking common ground with the unions in order to moderate wage increases.
The stated objective is a structural productivity gain of "at least 8% by 2028". To avoid outright layoffs, management is notably counting on voluntary departures and transfers to other Air France-KLM entities. It is also considering leaving certain natural departures unreplaced.
