New methodology in calculating ULR limits.

I have been rather hesitant in posting much less starting threads, especially with the sword held over our heads by the company with regards to PPrune and them divulging identities to EY. I posted the below on another thread but am wondering if this is also affecting EK. It is a farce how the logging is now done, I believe we should apply 100% on both sectors towards limits as I feel the same after operating as crew A or B.

"But can we sustain the workload we have to live with? Recruitment and upgrades are not keeping up with orders. One way to increase productivity and also increase resignations is adopting the new ULR logging criteria. Previously the operating crew logged 100% of the flight and the relief crew 50% and they changed over for the return trip. Now the operating crew logs 60% and the relief crew 40% changing over for the return, this farce effectively means that on one of the sectors you log 0% towards your limits thence they can get you to do more long haul trips per month or year and you are even more tired than now.
