BA Cabin Crew Strike Threat
As reported today on BBC world BA cabin crew have voted in favour of strike in a dispute over pay conditions and of course pensions.
The vote today in a hotel on the outskirts of LHR attended by CC from not just the UK but also form world wide stations was pretty final with a vote of 96% in favour of strike.
Some of the reasons for such a large yes was due to seemingly draconain rules on sickness with the union saying that 10 days off a year can lead to tea and biscuits with a threat of dismissal.
The CC union are also also saying that CC are being asked to work more hours and that many senior positions on board are being reduced.
BA are hoping that further discussions can avoid this strike.
