I only hope a deal isn't rushed through and voted on before the annual report is published in June again.
After publication of the Annual Report seems an ideal time for the Union and Management to agree a figure for any pay rise. We'll know how the company is performing and how much the senior management got in terms of rises and bonuses, so we can then be entitled to negotiate a sum which takes both the NATS enumeration policy and the Government RPI/CPI type figures in to account.
I suspect however that HR Director and Senior Management would much rather agree something miniscule now before the scale of fat cat rewards and company profits comes to light. Barron taught them well.
