This is very simply bully boy tactics once again by MOL & his hench men. "If they don't like it they can leave"......... A typical statement from the biggest prick to run an airline in history, not surprised by the words of wisdom though....
Unpaid leave will be forced upon pilots on a Ryanair contract only as they get a basic salary so have to be paid irrespective of the work they do. This work will then be done by contractors.
Those most at risk are the SENIOR FO's/Capt's who have the most basic wage. It's very simple!
Time for the Revenue commisioners/Government to step in because an Irish airline is making millions but not paying it's equivalent quota of tax as the contractors either don't pay any or pay tax in their country of residence....
And anyway, they cannot just force unpaid leave on us. You are either made redundant or you aren't. FR making it's own rules AGAIN me thinks!!!
