OK, Further to the above post, the EU Working Time Directive has been inforce for a while now, since early on this year.
MW is trying to pull a fast one, no doubt about it.
What we have to do is now write to the Flight Operations Director telling him that we are not happy about his proposal, as this is a MAJOR change to our T's & C's. He can not force you to accept this change unless you have given him your written consent.
Unfortunately those who have ticked the box in favour of the change in his
" Company Poll" will then have deemed to have accepted his proposal in writing.
Those who have ticked the other box have at least a chance of recovering from this debacle and having your leave as you require it.
Those who did not bother to vote either way, now have the chance of also having YOUR LEAVE, UNDER YOUR CONTROL and not theirs.
It is YOUR CHOICE. Write that letter.
