Survey Cont....(pages 2 and 3.)

Page 2 EBA Survey
Page 2 of 3

*16. It is proposed to reduce sick leave for new starters only in year 1 from 26 to 21 days (This only applies to crew who join Virgin Blue after the new EBA is implemented)

I would be willing to accept this option
I would not be willing to accept this option

*17. It is proposed to reduce sick leave with all days cumulative (no differentiation between sick day and URTI day). Please select your preferred option.

I would be willing to accept a reduction in sick leave to 16 days
I would be willing to accept a reduction in sick leave to 17 days
I would be willing to accept a reduction in sick leave to 18 days
I would not be willing to accept a reduction in sick leave

*18. If sick leave is reduced, it is proposed to change the requirement for a medical certificate ie you will only require a medical certificate for absences over 1 day

I am willing to accept this change
I am not willing to accept this change

*19. After hearing about the proposed changes to available day payments, which of the following statements supports your views on makeup of rosters? (Note: bids for days off, early starts and late starts will still apply)

I would like rosters made up of a mixture of flying, airport reserve and available days
I would prefer a full standby roster (full standby roster comprises airport reserve and available days)

*20. I would be prepared to work an 11 hour day with 11 days off...

If my pay was increased by 4%
If my pay was increased by 4.5%
If my pay was increased by 5%
I would not be prepared to work an 11 hour day with 11 days off

*21. I would be prepared to accept a pay rise of only 2% - 2.5% if I could keep my maximum daily hours at 9hrs 45mins and my rostered hours at 140hrs with 9.2 days off in a 28 day roster

Yes
No

22. If you are currently Part Time or interested in taking up Part Time in the next 3 years select the Part Time rostering arrangement that would best suit your needs

A range of hours eg between 70 and 84 hours
A range of days eg between 8 and 12 days

23. Please select the maximum number of days in a 28 day roster that you want to work under a Part Time arrangement (you will still need to fulfil 70 hours duty)


8 days
9 days
10 days
11 days
More than 11 days

*24. It is proposed we replace the overnight allowance with a Trip Allowance of between $3.00 - $3.30. The allowance would be payable from sign on in home base to sign off in home base and on both day trips and overnights. The Trip allowance would continue to be tax free on overnights.

I would be willing to accept this option
I would not be willing to accept this option
I would prefer to stay with the current overnight allowance

*25. Would you be willing to accept a trip allowance higher than the proposed $3.00 - $3.30 if it was ONLY paid on overnights and not on day trips

I would be willing to accept a higher trip allowance if it was paid ONLY on overnights
I would be willing to accept a trip allowance if it wasn't paid on day trips
just a note on these two options- isn't a and b the same answer essentially, there fore no real choice??? .. as with most of the q. in this survey. how about a 3rd option that says I would be willing to accept a trip allowance if it was higher- at a rate at least fair, ie $4.50+ and paid on all duty".... or a forth option... "NO." oh and FYI you have to select an option to be able to move on to the next question!!

*26. It is proposed to increase unpaid parental leave up to 18 months (currently 12) with the added ability to return to work as Part Time crew for up to 3 months. Does this have value to you?

Yes, I would be interested in returning to work as Part Time crew for up to 3 months
No, I would not be interested in the Part Time option when I return to work
This does not affect me

*27. If the agreement was based on Option C as presented in the EBA Roadshow eg 28 day roster, average of 150 hours, maximum daily hours of 11hrs and 11 days off), how would you vote?
Yes
No ......BIG NO

*28. If the agreement was based on Option B as presented in the EBA Roadshow eg 28 day roster, average of 140 hours, maximum daily hours of 10hrs15mins and 10 days off), how would you vote?

Hope this is useful for everyone on this forum - please keep up the feedback so those out there who don't fully understand the changes demanded in the proposed EBA can gain general insight to the matter. And so management and FAAA can gauge what we really want, or more so what we really dont want!
