@Safety Concerns
"There has already been a similar court case although in reverse. The employer offered free flights to all those who continued to work and refused to take part in strike action.

The strike duly finished, the union waited until the first person took up this offer and then successfully went to court on the basis of discrimination to get strikers a free flight as well.

They won apparently because the strikers had done nothing wrong and so the offer of a free flight for some employees and not others was discrimination. "

What court case was this? from a common working stiffs perspective it seems a fair deal.. don't strike and we will give you a non contractual perk for your loyalty.

As opposed I suppose to stike and we will remove your non contractual perk.

I havent heard BA saying anything about the removal of ST being permanent and forever. But BASSA can't negotiate on when or if because of its stated position and harm done to its members who have lost ST.
