If Balpa gets its way will they be integrated into the master seniority list or tagged on the bottom?
Contrary to popular opinion, it is not in the gift of BALPA to decide who BA Plc chooses to employ.
OS pilots were recruited to 'different' criteria to mainline (according to BA) BA
may choose not to retain them
at all, in preference to granting them access to mainline fleets.
Absolutely
nothing is certain!
However, they will all have realised the uncertain position they put themselves in when they chose to defy the IFALPA recruitment ban. With such a tiny number of individuals affected, and all with less than 2 years in the company, I am unsure as to what protection from redundancy they could expect?
BA, under WW is now more 'slash and burn' than 'caring employer'!
