UAW International Union

47 minutes ago

On August 22, 1945, the first union for flight attendants, the Airline Stewardess Association, was formed. Back then, the profession was purely for women and they were called stewardesses. Though many focus on the glamour of travel, it was (and still is) a grueling job: long hours of standing at 20,000 feet while being expected to look good at the same time. Back then, airlines had strict height and weight requirements and even set guidelines on how flight attendants wore their hair. Flight attendants were fired if they got married and were forced to retire at age 32. By forming their own union, they were no longer at the mercy of the airlines. The Association of Flight Attendants (as their union is now called) fought for better pay and working conditions and took gender discrimination head on. AFA got the age requirements lifted in 1968 and pushed the airlines to end the marriage requirement, which required a fight in court, and opened the profession to men. Today, the AFA is a part of the Communication Workers of America (CWA) and represents about 50,000 flight attendants at 18 airlines. #AFACWA #PROUAW ... See MoreSee Less
