FORT WORTH, Texas, Dec. 23 (UPI) -- The union representing 25,000 flight attendants at American Airlines filed a grievance over new uniforms, saying members are suffering rashes and other ailments as a result of wearing them.
The airline in September rolled out new uniforms for 70,000 employees, including on-board staff. They consist of a blended wool, polyester and spandex blazer and a cotton shirt. An all-cotton version for employees sensitive to wool is also offered.
