HH, hang on a minute i agree in principle with one point re:newly valid controller vs. 20 year valid controller. The guy with 20yrs experience SHOULD get paid more, but a newly VALID controller should be on the VALID controllers pay scale. Whilst the new Post Validation Point does partly brige the gap between the T&D scale and the ATCO2 payscale it is still not a FULLY VALID controllers wage. I feel that when i validate i should be on the same pay scale as the guy sat next to me, be it with 2 years or 20 years experience. I accept we will have different levels of pay but we should be on the same pay scale.
Form49 which course were you on?
