First one; obviously talking LH not SH, when did this " alleged 18 month pay freeze" actually occur , was it actually implemented. On EBA 8 or 9 , what time
period ? That the previously agreed (& it is ratified by FWC) , not "law" but is approved/stamped by Commission. That these previously binding annual pay rises & written into EBAs did not
actually occur . Interesting - I would need a lot more convincing - than a few lines from a journo
I don't have a dog in this fight but having a quick glance at LH EBA 9 (2015) the payscales for the A380, B747, A330 & B767 state:
- 1st January 2014
- 1st July 2016
- 1st July 2017
- 1st July 2018
With a 2 year 6 month gap between the first two pay rates I'd say that would be an 18 month pay freeze.
As it does not affect me I haven't delved into the finer details of the agreement so maybe I'm overlooking something that would negate my above statement.
