Parity on basic pay and no strings attached please....
Guys,
my understanding of how we started this debacles is as follows, if I am wrong please chip in...
All three sets of negotiators left the discussions to present to their respective Branch Executive Councils (BEC's) the 6% offer. I am led to believe general concensus was that they would all likely accept the offer.
The PCS and ATSS BEC's recommended acceptance whilst the ATCO BEC recommended rejection.
It would appear that there was/is a break down in comms or process between the three branches after the branches made their recommendations. Particularly when the strongest branch (and the one with clout) rejects the deal!!!!
Maybe something for a new topic? Voluntary Severance scheme, what is it? Will this undermine the present redundancy terms. Add to this the proposed changes to Staff Surpluses agreement (what are they Prospect)
we may be adding ingredients together that do not make an apple pie for the staff.
