Does the president read his own letter?
Hong Kong Aircrew Officers Association President writes...
"However, there is also a clear, transparent requirement on the part of the Members that a standalone, interim solution be negotiated this year regarding Pay. This requirement has been outstanding for over five months now and must thus take precedence over completion of the Good Faith Bargaining Framework.
I therefore ask for your assurance that Pay will constitute a major part of the discussions on 19 November as I have previously requested. Any failure to discuss Pay earnestly at that meeting, with a view to agreeing on an interim solution before the Christmas break, could only be viewed as a failure on the part of the Company to respond adequately to our repeatedly stated concerns."
So when company comes back with 0% change to pay, and any change to pay will be back dated by 4 months, and the GC agrees and withholds CC before Christmas, what stops the company from saying 0% payrise on Jan 6th, which can be backdated 4 months or maybe out of their generosity they'll even say we can backdate it by 4 years!
Name and shame those on the GC who voted "yes" to the agreement!
