The NATS Employees' Handbook states quite clearly that salaries will be paid into the staff's bank account by the third last working day of the month.
That date is the 27th December 2001.
If it is any later than that, then NATS are in breach of contract. I, for one, will not be working on 1 January 2002 if the salary is not in my bank account on the due date.
Moreover, if the money is not paid on time, then I suggest that people who are due to work on or after the 28th December 2001 seriously question whether or not they should work, being as we are, after all, paid in arrears.
I also believe that one of TAG's edicts was to "quash rumours" -
so come on NATS - tell us the truth - for once ????
