As the union themselves have agreed, doing nothing is not an option.
So NATS paying in their fair share following the "holiday" with subsequent interest would "not be doing nothing". Indeed it would be doing the "right" thing and may just start to persuade people that they are prepared to shift a little on this issue.
People need to remember that many staff potentially affected by this have been in the company for 30 years+ and many will have no time to react to any potential changes.
The fact of the matter is that the staff just don't trust this present management on any of their promises regarding the pension and the security of it even for those of us who are supposedly protected by legislation.
Remember above everything-Barron has form.
