Abstract
|
|
|
The purpose of this study is to delve into the lives of dismissed airline workers.
For this, a total of 4 participants were selected, and data were collected through 1:1 in-depth interviews. The collected data were analyzed by applying Creswell’s (2013) case study method. According to the research procedure, first, ‘the context of the lives of dismissed airline workers’ was individually revealed through ‘within-case analysis’. Second, a total of 15 integration topics between cases were extracted through ‘cross-case analysis’.
Results show that they revealed their lives before dismissal as ‘the job they dreamed of’, ‘what they were proud of’, ‘satisfied with one’s job’, ‘sensing that something is wrong’. After the dismissal, the participants suffered from ‘concerns becoming a reality’, ‘thrown away in the open sea’. ‘relative deprivation’, ‘sadness from criticism’, ‘fury on unfairness’, ‘over-the-counter struggles’, ‘out into the part-time job battlefront’, ‘appreciation for family’, ‘struggles to keep one’s place’, ‘avoiding extreme choices’, ‘broken rice bowl’, and ‘change of perspective on labor’.
Based on these findings, researchers suggested the need for an integrated institution that can provide psychological support services for dismissed airline workers, support self-help groups, and provide jobs as well as education to dismissed airline crews. In addition, they proposed the development and application of welfare policies that reflect the necessity of the aviation crew (airline workers) mutual aid association and the characteristics of the aviation industry.
