It may all be irrelevant soon as rumour has it that IPMS are about to pull the deal following one too many mistakes by management in the implementation of the deal.
I understand that people were used to cover sickness-strictly outside the agreement. Funny really that NATS would risk such a vital agreement in this way, or is a delay to NERC abouut to be announced and the workforce can be used as the scapegoats.
It certainly won't be CheeseandHam or Bill Semple based on the bonuses they got last year-between £30-£40k each-and I bet that was pensionable too!!!!!!!!!
