In my very humble opinion the only way forward for long term prosperity is to fight tooth and nail via Balpa to eliminate the things that divide us.
The pay scales would be a logical but ground breaking place to start. Unpopular as this may be, for a number of reasons, I genuinely think it’s high time we scrapped the various pay scales between LH/SH and all sit on one.
Incremental payscale to reward long service, great. But ONE master payscale.
The fact is guys & girls, until we’re more united as a work force the company will run rings around us by poking and widening the cracks between us.
Just my opinion and I realise that it’s unlikely to be a popular one on certain circles. That said, it’s surely undeniable a move in this direction this would send shockwaves through the upper echelons.
Cheers
