A quick question on what this thread is actually about..... If we do manage to get a payrise agreed would it be back dated to 1st jan 2009???
When NATS staff voted to accept the pension scheme changes they also voted to be screw for ever more.
I doubt there will be a pay rise for staff this year or next year. Even when the economy turns around I expect it will be extremely difficult for us to get a pay rise until Management absolutely have to give us one.
It is the duty of the Board to maximise profits for the shareholders and that is what they are doing. It would be naive in the extreme to expect these leopards to suddenly change their spots.
