I agree there was a rise but it was derisory, the increment was a loyalty type payment for each year of service completed.
The pay rise in the form of sector pay was a disaster for the company and yesterday’s announcement of the net profit made by Dart adds insult to injury in my opinion.
Management can sweeten it up all they like but it does not match the cost of living rise in the UK this year.
I hope that yesterday’s profit announcement will stir some of our more dormant colleagues into action by joining the chosen representative body (BALPA) and understand that representation is required NOW to stop the rot.
