A pilot can enquire from HR what Step he/she is on but will not be given the whole scale as before.
Good post Proxy. A fair and thorough analysis. Something I discovered by accident just recently is that you can see what step you are on by looking at your contract adjustment letters in HR direct. Go to the history tab and it is on the far right. The scales themselves however remain a black self guarded secret but given the information that the bottom is 25460 then anyone with a rudimentary grasp of XL could make up a spreadsheet to show the steps. I have posted one. In the Emirates forum in the past and will update it should we miraculously get an adjustment. In my opinion it should be available to all EK pilots but then again shouldn’t the seniority list.
PS: The other posters are correct it is a 10 step increment on upgrade.
