Are they increasing costs? I seem to remember that the four new pay points are self funded by not backdating the pay deal and removing the fourth purser. That also saves BA additional money by removing pursers who have higher pensionable pay and hence require pension contributions from the company. BASSA really haven't won anything through the ballot other than a change to FCOs. Any hard changes to terms and conditions have been paid for elsewhere. They also failed to secure the minimum 250 CSD positions on EF (more savings in the pipeline) and fixed links are back on the agenda (after being pulled in protest at the removal of the CSD from 321s). I see BA making significant inroads to that £37M they want to save and no financial gain whatsoever for BASSA.
