Talks resume today between Hong Kong airport ground staff and their employer over the bonus dispute that led to a three-hour strike, causing travellers severe disruption.
The two sides will meet at Labour Department offices.
Chan Po-choi, general secretary of the Staff and Workers Union of Hong Kong Civil Airlines, who will attend the meeting along with a dozen employees of Hong Kong Airport Services (HAS) - one of three employers of ground staff - said the workers stood by their demands.
'We insist that HAS must give us a bonus equivalent to one month's salary. We do not accept the company's proposal to pay us only two weeks' bonus,' Mr Chan said.
'Our union has consulted the workers and they all oppose HAS cutting their annual bonuses.'
Mindful of the impact of the economic downturn on airport traffic, Mr Chan said: 'We must stress that we do not mind getting through this difficult time with our company.
