Frontier's top eight executives have made a proposal to the bankruptcy court

Wednesday - July 15, 2020

Frontier's top eight executives have made a proposal to the bankruptcy court requesting up to $16.1 million in additional "incentive" compensation this year. This is on top of nearly $8m in bonuses these executives paid themselves just before the bankruptcy and $5m in regular salary they are already due to receive. The package total would translate into $1,895 for each CWA member.

The bankruptcy court will hear Frontier's proposal this Thursday, July 16th.

CWA has filed a statement of opposition with the court, stating that these payments are "plainly unfair and inequitable, particularly in the context of the many Frontier employees who are steadfastly carrying out their work in trying circumstances"

We are asking members across the country at Frontier to voice their objections to these payments as well. Frontier's message to customers is "Don't Go it Alone" but Frontier executives need to be reminded that They Didn't Do It Alone.

Instead of enriching themselves at the expense of our members and the business, Frontier should be rewarding the frontline workers for keeping the business afloat through years of mismanagement and under-investment.

The attached invoices for CWA members' fair share of the incentive package are intended to be shared on social media.

Members can share the digital file OR print out the pdf file to share a selfie with the bill on social media.

Thank you 

Mark Raines

President CWA Local 2001
