MBT
Bassa have repeatedly said they will not negotiate on any permanent cuts. Bassa now say they are ballotting to force the company to negotiate. ???????
What would happen if the company said, ok, clean slate, lets sit down and talk about how do we achieve these savings?
Be honest, Bassa wouldn't, couldn't do it. (It's actually about power, remember)
I really cannot see any other option for the company. Otherwise how could IFCE achieve any savings?
As for you. How will you have to take a 42% pay cut? You don't have to shift to New Fleet and the travel allowance will even out allowance payments for the most part.
