Bristow Pay Deal

Just to put the record straight.
The Bristow BALPA CC are conducting an "Indicative Ballot" for strike action, should the next stage of the protracted negotiations fail. The next stage is the "Standing Conference" bit, where the MD of BHL and the Gen Sec of BALPA get together with the two negotiating parties. If no progress is made, then the real ballot will go out to the members; this will be the legal one that could start the industrial actions. Just in time for the Christmas rush.
If the management are prepared to agree to deal that gives the BHL pilots some form of parity with their Scotia colleagues, then there will be no industrial action. Simple!!
