And what recourse would these based individuals then have. ? If things are that dire they are hardly unlikely to be able to sue a non existent organization. Take a look at what can be done with an allegedly superior EBA (Oz vs HK as an example). Hasn’t done them too many favours there, has it ?
Have a look on the Labour Department website you'll be able to find it in about 2 mins, of course it doesn't mention Seniority and airline specific items it's about employment contracts in Hong Kong and how companies can break them or amend them in certain situations.
