桃園機場公司 經理級8萬元 薪資具競爭力
....桃園機場前年由公務機關改制為國營公司，管理與人力運用都更具自主性。隨著客貨運量持續攀升，加上第三航廈計畫啟動，未來幾年可望釋出大量職缺。
大環境不景氣，國營事業飯碗搶手，不論是天上飛的，地上跑的，大家都搶著報考。前年底，桃園機場從「桃園國際航空站」改制為「桃園機場公司」，陸續辦理過幾次招募。因為工作性質特殊，加上薪資福利不輸公務員或民間企業，吸引大批民眾報考。
獲利表現亮麗的新國營事業
交通部所屬的國營事業包括中華郵政、港務公司、台鐵、桃園機場公司。桃機「公司化」後，雖積極導入企業精神，但就體制上來說，仍是百分之百政府持股的「國營事業」；內部人員不具備公務員資格，但仍屬「廣義的公務員」。
只要去過國際機場，一定都能感受到機場進駐單位的複雜性。民眾會接觸到的「公權力」單位，包括通關、安檢、檢疫、保安等。此外還有許多「非公權力」的業務，包括餐飲、停車、購物、地勤、清潔、機場聯外交通運輸等，這些業務由桃機負責整合。
簡單的說，桃機有點像是機場的「大房東」，擔負協調統合角色。桃機人資處處長許孝德表示，桃機主要任務是機場專用區的規劃與營運，以及機場專用區航空運輸相關服務的經營與提供，下設航務處、業務處、營運安全處、工程處、貨運處等18個單位。
日前旅遊網站亞瑪迪斯公布全球10大友善機場，桃機榮登金榜；而根據國際機場協會（ACI）公布的最新評比，桃園機場的服務品質更從全球第36名躍升至11名，與前10名只有一步之差。
其實，桃機是很賺錢的公司，許孝德以去年為例，原本預算盈餘是15億元，但實際稅後盈餘卻高達30億元，等於是預算目標的2倍，其中航空收入占45％，非航空收入占55％。
第三航廈新建 將再啟動招募
改制後，桃機曾委託金融研訓院辦理過一次大型招募，職缺包括法務、公關、航務、土木、機械、電力等。當時開出的經理級薪資約8萬元、副理級與高級專員7萬元、專員6萬元、助理工程與業務員5萬元、事務員約3萬元。許孝德說，相較於民間企業，桃機的薪資頗具競爭力；雖然和其他國營事業一樣，同樣有考核獎金、績效獎金，最高4.6個月，但並不是所有員工都領得到。
最近1年來，桃機陸續有同仁離退，但因為缺額不多，以自行辦理招考為主。未來還會有大量人力需求嗎？許孝德說，為推動桃園機場園區成為亞太自由貿易的交通樞紐，桃機已宣布啟動第三航廈新建計畫，將建設為兼具運輸、商業、休閒與觀光功能的航廈，最快107年完工啟用。屆時桃機會逐步視業務需求辦理招募，職缺大致以土木、機械、電力、企劃、航務及其他營運性質職務為主。
應徵條件原則以大專以上相關科系畢業，同時具備一定服務經驗為主（以招募公告為準），求職者可隨時留意桃機官網的「人力招募」專區。
航務人員個性需沉穩果斷
桃園機場是國家大門，一年365天、每天24小時，維持不斷運轉。估計今年全年桃機起降航班數將達到16萬架次，旅客量更高達2,800萬人次。許孝德說，在業務量持續成長情況下，機場功能的密切銜接更顯重要，人員工作量也更吃緊。
桃機人員的工作內容又是如何？許孝德以內部很特殊的部門——航務處為例，空側（Air Side）航務處的航務人員必須24小時輪值，此單位設有督導席、南北資料席、監控席、地面席、貨運席，負責機場空側區域（停機坪、滑行道及跑道）的運作與秩序管理，掌控空側區域的航機動態與資料紀錄。
許孝德說，航務處用人重視「經驗值」，每當發生天候因素關閉機場、航機改降，或航機機械故障等狀況，就需要立刻做機坪航班調度與旅客搭機處理，航務人員必須運用長期培養的經驗加以判斷，才能即時協調調度班機、人力、物力。
航務人員的養成不易，通常需要至少5年的培訓，才能熟悉整體運作。在招募時除了專業知識，也要求極高的英語能力（TOEIC750分以上）；在人格特質上，則偏好個性沉穩、果斷、具邏輯思惟、溝通與學習力等條件。
風雨無阻全年無休需輪班
除了後勤支援單位，桃機多數部門都需要輪班，工作並不輕鬆。許孝德說，以航務人員為例，每天要做4次巡場，不論颳風下雨，都要出動進行所有空側區域的巡查，沒有例外。
機場是國家門面，也是國際交流的重要窗口。許孝德說，桃機在用人策略上，首重「榮譽感」，員工必須願意承諾負起責任，正直有紀律地執行職務。因為機場正在積極轉型，桃機非常歡迎有服務熱忱與創新思維的新血加入。

The Federal Aviation Administration is about to propose a minimum experience requirement for airline co-pilots that is substantially higher than current mandates but considerably below the level sought by Congress, according to industry officials and others familiar with the details.
Proponents of the change say the proposed requirement of at least 700 or so flight hours of experience for nearly all co–pilots—rather than the 1,500 hours sought by lawmakers to boost airline safety—is essential to avoid future pilot shortages.

Expected as early as next month, the FAA proposal would pave the way for one of the biggest shifts in commercial-pilot training in decades. It would come at a time when reduced hiring of former military aviators and the looming retirement of thousands of older pilots threaten to create an industry-wide pilot shortage.
Raising co-pilot qualifications—without running afoul of congressional wishes or drastically reducing the likely pool of job applicants—is among the most difficult issues facing U.S. airlines and regulators.
An FAA spokesman declined to comment.
The FAA's proposal still could be modified or delayed by additional reviews by White House regulatory officials and lobbying efforts by industry groups.
The push for revised aviator qualifications stems from the high-profile crash of a turboprop plane near Buffalo, N.Y., in February 2009. The Colgan Air accident killed 50 people and prompted a debate over pilot training and the safety of such regional carriers.
The FAA's plan, which follows in broad outline the recommendations of an industry-labor group, would require most co-pilots to have at least 700 or so hours of experience flying smaller aircraft before they would be permitted to fly airliners, according to people familiar with the proposal. That compares with as little as 250 hours under existing FAA rules.
In a speech on Wednesday, FAA chief Randy Babbitt said agency officials are drafting the proposals based on the earlier recommendations, but he didn't elaborate.
![[HOURS]](http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/NA-BN514_HOURS_NS_20110929211817.jpg)
The goal is to improve the knowledge and caliber of newly hired co-pilots, partly by giving extra flight-time credits to civilian job-seekers who graduate from four-year academic institutions or other advanced-training programs in which they study such things as aeronautics and airmanship.
Pilots leaving the military to join an airline could be eligible for even larger flight-time credits or possibly special exemptions, said people familiar with the details. By comparison, most others would need at least 1,500 hours of actual flight time to be an airline co-pilot, these people said.
The FAA's plan doesn't go as far as Congress advocated in July 2010, when it called for 1,500 hours of flying experience as an across-the-board safety minimum for all commercial pilots, including co-pilots. Airline captains already must meet that standard.
Lawmakers, however, grudgingly gave the FAA flexibility to effectively set lower flight-hour standards for co-pilots coming from enhanced training programs.
A spokeswoman for the Regional Airline Association, which represents more than two dozen carriers, declined to comment on the proposal.
If the proposal becomes final after months of public comment and further FAA deliberations, it could be a boon to universities and others that offer flight training as part of broad aviation programs.
Mike Suckow, an administrator at Purdue University's Department of Aviation Technology, said his school could accommodate a requirement of about 750 flight hours, compared with the roughly 500 hours of individual flight time and service as a flight instructor the average student currently accumulates before graduation.
But for stand-alone flight schools that offer limited academic work, the proposal could result in a sizeable drop in students. The plan "would likely drive many of those people interested in an aviation career into the academic realm," said Bob Rockmaker, president of the Flight School Association of North America.
Last October, an air-safety advisory group created by the FAA lobbed the hot potato of pilot qualifications into the lap of the FAA's Mr. Babbitt.
The group's recommendations included a flexible, sliding scale that would offer prospective co-pilots the chance to supplement their flight hours with a college degree, special jet-training courses and other proof of enhanced aeronautical knowledge.
The group also urged the FAA to require each new co-pilot to demonstrate proficiency in the specific aircraft type he or she will be assigned to fly. Currently, the FAA requires only captains to have such "type ratings" covering their knowledge of specific models, though many airlines also require co-pilots to pass the same tests.
In addition, last year's recommendations would require specific piloting skills for new hires, ranging from high-altitude aircraft handling to contending with winter weather conditions.
The increased flight-hours proposal is one of four safety initiatives the FAA is expected to release this year. Others include revamping rules intended to combat pilot fatigue; proposals to encourage mentoring of new pilots; and a broader rewrite of training practices affecting both commuter airlines and mainline carriers. All were prompted by the 2009 Colgan Air crash.
But progress on the rule-making efforts has been slow. A proposed rule intended to encourage more-experienced pilots to serve as mentors for new airline hires has been under review by the White House Office of Management and Budget since May, according to industry officials. The pilot qualification proposal has been under formal review by the same office since late June.
And white House officials have been mulling the issue of alleviating pilot fatigue for months, though they asked Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood to hold off officially submitting that package—and therefore delayed the start of a formal regulatory time clock—until August, according to people familiar with the process.
