Canonical event record

What happened

Lufthansa City Airlines and Verdi agreed a collective arrangement allowing cockpit and cabin staff to choose between employer-funded occupational pension contributions and a five-percent gross-pay increase including social-security contributions.

Why it matters: The model creates a differentiated compensation option within Lufthansa Group and may set a precedent for similar negotiations, including at Discover Airlines.
