There is no denying that the roll-out of the performance appraisal system and the subsequent pay award was a mess. Unfortunately due to the mix of staff (DA/Serco) on the contract, DANS as a whole had to follow the DA process this year.
However, when the dust eventually settles and you compare to elsewhere in the world, is the total tax-free package (salary, personal allowances, housing, schooling, flights, medical) on offer that poor?
Dubai is on the pricey side, but there are worse places to be living, raising a family, etc.

Whilst understanding from WHERE the go-ahead for the pay award came from, it is useless comparing what other units may offer. Please keep in mind that most of us are AWAY FROM our FAMILIES, FRIENDS. so unless the contract is no longer that attractive, then most of us will be annoyed.....
&..........
Whatever the excuses may be, there is still NO JUSTIFICATION of the DIFFERENCE in pay award amongst ALL ATCOs! It is easy to say "if you don't like it, then pack & leave"...but what is the scope?
From my understanding of the latest memo, there does not seem to be any adjustment of all ATCOs' salaries to be on the SAME numbers in the near future!!!
OK.....if that's what you want........

Prowler do you really think that all Atco`s were on the same pay before this? From reading the original raison dètre i would guess there were already a few different deals that nobody really wants to talk about.

We are now basically refering to the 'BASIC' which one can also say is on a 'divide & rule' basis! The way this has been done & how this won't be adjusted is simply disgusting to say the least!

yes - 3
18 slots to be filled this year, but I hear they are all allotted.
Pass rate? Judging by recent standards you should make it if you have a pulse.
Length? 3 - 4 months to check out.
Medical? You can have a medical everyday of your life if you wish mate!

How is the transition for APP to DWC going? When will it be completed, and for anyone who seen the facility/gear, how does it compare to the old ACC at DXB?
While the new APP facility itself is better than the current DXB one, it is not brilliant (definitely done on a budget) but the main problem is the lack of other facilities such as access to food outlets, car parking and the like. This will presumably improve eventually when passenger services start at DWC but that could be a couple of years at least. Suffice to say, not many of us are keen to move at the moment.
Apply now! as the CV drawer is nigh on empty.
For DWC-AMI??????

Any other types of discrimination we should know about before the CV is dispatched into the bin.There are lots to chose from religion,gender,colour etc etc.
Perhaps Serco should read their own Anti discrimination policies.
Where's my zimmer.Aged 50 and a half.
