Well of course you could do that, I completely agree and I would not blame anyone, but BA are strictly not allowed to offer inducements for people to leave the union, so I would hope that was not their reason for doing so.
I am no longer a member because I felt I had to leave because I did not go along with the mandate to strike but are you suggesting that people only get to move from area to area within IFC if they leave the union.
Would that be acceptable if BA said that only non union people could have part time in other departments!! I don't think if BA were in dispute with say pilots and only non union pilots could move from E/F to WW or visa versa or Customer Service staff could only have part time if they were not in the union. Is that right!
Do you think it is acceptable to single out one set of workers and treat them differently. I don't and I am one of the ones that could have benefited!
