Thanks for pointing out the FACTS.
You are correct in the limited FACTS you have provided. What you have neglected to add to your FACTS is that along with the "increase in productivity" by changing our conditions, we no longer get any credit for simulator, standby, sim support, office days to list a few. So after flying 140hrs we can be put on standby, sent to the sim etc and get no pay whatsoever for that. Now that's what i call a productivity increase!
It is irrelevant as to whether other companies do this, or
Maybe the EK drivers have become accustomed to taking a fat paycheck without actually putting in the required manhours
.
The FACT is we were all employed under different terms and had them changed unilaterally. Sure there is nothing we can do about it, but we dont have to be happy about it either.
