Perhaps someone would be kind enough to confirm some points about the savings?
Earlier, HiFlyer mentioned that the original plan was to take 1 member off to make the savings.
As I understood it, the "1 member off" alone wouldn't be enough to make the £60-70-80m worth of savings on its own, and was also linked to a new disruption agreement and New Fleet. This was on the basis that BillF said the two options were;
(1) Everyone take a share of the pain,
or
(2) Just work a bit harder and new joiners take the pay cut,
2 being the overwhelmingly preferred (if a little myopic!) option.
From the various figures put out by both sides, does anyone have a rough idea of just how much exactly the "1 member off" saves? I can't imagine it's anywhere near the full amount.
Also, has the new disruption agreement been imposed along with the 1 member off? What is the difference in wording compared to the old one?
Finally, any truth in the rumours that ex-Temps are being offered New Fleet contracts? Anyone seen one?
Thanks.
