Well done George,

Obvious this will have the CX management and their Cohorts at KA spitting their Congee. This should mean UK and as a result European Employment Legislation applying to those carriers who use flag of convenience companies in the UK to dilute the emloyment conditions of their crews when compared to their Hong Kong( or otherwise) based colleagues.

While the full ruling is yet to be digested, It could open the door for claims of unfair and unequal treatment.

It may well be the end of that management statement " Well whilst we realise you are UK based, Hong Kong Law applies in your employment".

Sorry Headmaster, your cane has just been taken away.............
