In many ways I support the CC in their attempts to resist EG300. Within BA Engineering it has been introduced with many problems. Many are already at the stage 3 level. One LHR fitter came into work with chicken pox (being afraid to go sick) and gave one of his colleagues shingles!
Others are being branded as skivers for being off sick after car accidents etc.
It's a major success in the short term as sickness is down but soon, when the bird flu pandemic hits, entire shifts will go down! Bravo.
