Good job I'm not involved in the estimating the costs of a redundancy package then
! You are quite right about the loss of experience as an additional factor and I would suggest that is already being felt in some fleets and trade groups.
Still worries me that any manpower reductions will be done in a way that costs as little as possible to the budget. Compulsory redundancy with only the legal minimum as compensation. I know it is happening in the 'outside world' as the norm but that doesn't make it right.
