So I take it that management will be working every Friday now - to 'share the pain'.. And of course for no extra pay
I haven't worked any days off for a long long time, and certainly won't be doing so in the future
EKALPA (wishful thinking).. 'Reliable source'? Well, the productivity threshold is NOT a contractual subject.. However, most else of what you mention IS and it won't change - ie 42 days leave, company provident contributions, utilities paid for.. What may happen is a 'B' scale type contract attempted for new joiners, but like every big announcement it's all hot air and will all blow over once senior managers are happy they've stuck their finger up at us....
Remember - this comes from people who think that the 343 and 345 have brake fans
