Excellent post. You are bang on. The existing SIA pilots wage package satisfies the requirements of the proposed "wage reform" policy already with the possible exception of some very long service Captains getting more than 1.5 times new Captains basic. Perhaps the Straits Times might be encouraged to point out those areas in which the present CA fails to satisfy the new policy.
Is it true that if a new pay rate is in place before 1st July the bonus for last year can be paid based on the new rate? Answers please from all those small print readers out there.
Could this have something to do with SIA's enthusiasm for an early settlement in their favour?
When the arbitration has been finalised does that mean that the requirement to reach a new Collective agreement by 14 December is simply ignored?
Sounds like SIA needs a new set of "Core Values". Suggestions on a postcard to the Straits Times!
