A couple of days ago I mentioned that I was concerned by the inclusion of the new redeployment agreement in this and all previous offers put to the cabin crew.
Bill Francis says that there is no connection between this and the creation of the new low cost fleet at London and that no cabin crew were ever in Careerlink. I still feel that creating a new fleet to do the work is going to change all the resons crew have been previously protected.
Now I hear that this same change to all BA contracts has important implications for the future of our pension scheme. I was given to this link to a report suggesting that one of the principle barriers to closure of the FSS schemes is this very old part of all our contracts.

Does anyone think this is a genuine concern? Have other employee groups already agreed to these changes?
