Benefit in kind - removal of ST

There's been a lot of discussion on here about the removal of Staff Travel and whether it is contractual. This seems to have centred around the tax implications. But I'm not sure that is really what's important. If Unite or CC have a case for changes to Ts & Cs it will surely be based on whether ST is part of their implied contract as a custom and practice.

This is a very complex area which I doubt many (if any) on this board have the experience to discuss. I know that I don't .

However, what I do know is that BA is a large company with access to an experienced legal team. Based on what has gone before, I find it unlikely that WW has made his comments with regards to ST without being pretty sure he is on strong legal ground.
