BASSA and BA agree on new attendance management.
Well it seems BASSA and BA management have agreed the implementation of the EG300 Attendence Management Process.
The main changes are:
- Fairness and Consistency of Discretion: A 'review body' to be set up comprising management, BASSA and CC89 reps to administer and monitor when disretion can be used in deciding whether an absence should or shouldn't count towards a 'trigger point'. This replaces the original offer of BA managers to soley implement and decide on what constitutes 'discretion'.
- Days Off: Days off/MBT days will not count as sick days. So if your roster is 3 day trip followed by 3 days off followed by a 4 day trip and you were sick for both trips it will be counted as 1 occassion but only 7 days sick.
- Monitoring EG300 implementation: Will now be discussed via a negotiating forum instead of a consultative forum.
All Cabin Crew will be balloted on BASSA's negotiations with the recommendation to accept. All crew will then be paid the GBP1,000 paid to other staff.
