Guy's final answer. All steps have been increased by 5% and all eligible (not at the top of the scale) get a step increase equal to 3% of theit current step, which totals 8%. If someone cant get this, the less said the better. If I am wrong I will admit I am an idiot

Could someone who knows themself to be on the top rung state what the amount now is? Something just over 60k?

Joe,

You are an idiot. It's 8.15%........;)

You're right :ok:.....It's 8.15% :O

We're probably all idiots, the basic makes up about 80% of my monthly pay, so the effective increase for me is about 6.5%. Others will vary slightly but since the "cost neutral" pay restructure, you take it in the shorts unless flying pay is tweaked also...

Indeed, but consider the CC, their basic is an even smaller % of their monthly total. An FG1 recently lamented that her profit share was less than the girlie who works the till in the duty free shop, due to the lower basic pay..

I have been waiting for more than 5 days now for my emotions to settle down before I post.... hasn't may much difference so waiting another 5 or so won't make much difference.
12 weeks bonus. Well thank you very f@*&ing much for paying me the 8 weeks of productivity pay you owed me. Whats left is 4 weeks bonus. Find it hard to get all whooped whooped over that.
8% pay raise? What can I say? The price of my rum and coke went up 50% and not because of the rum!

Hang in there boys!

Actually the PF bumps up too; so depending on years of service 9.128% or 9.372%. We'll know for sure in 10 days. I'm content although nearing top of pay scale helps. I think it's called golden handcuffs...

Cant say we are taking a loss on this, although it could be better.

You are a lucky bunch.

SIA Cargo pilots hasn't got a pay rise since 2005. You got 8-9 % this year alone... And, we got about half of your profit sharing:{

The F/O package in EK is now on par with that of an expat captain in SIA Cargo. Too bad they don't take DEC:s anymore... too old to apply for the F/O job.

Too bad for you, great for the rest of the qualified f\o's waiting patiently for their turn.

Good line:E:E:E

Instant Hooligan,

I don't think EK are presently not recruiting DEC's because its morally wrong.

They might be finding the required candidates at present, but will they find those numbers in the near future with all the expansion going on world wide?

It all depends on numbers and the economic law of supply and demand.

Yep, all those F/O:s are waiting patiently because they are morally superior to me.
They, or the mighty White Knight, would of course never accept a position as DEC if they were offered...

EK fails so many FO's now they will "have to" hire DEC's again

Contract adjustment letter on HRDirect; pay review works out at 8.2% (Pre-2011 joiners).

Just as if nobody noticed, the pay review is valid from May 1st. The financial year is from April 1st to March 31st. We should get a back payment to April 1st in a normal company. But just because they can... they won't pay it. How is this called in other places?

Keep Discovering:}

ek,
I'm sure others will confirm but contract adjusts have always been 1st May. Unless adhoc changes.

The engineers get theirs in July I believe but it's still a year from the last one.

The payslip looks fair, HOWEVER, it SHOULD look like that every month.
They can afford it and it would then be a reasonable package with reasonable compensation for living in this .... hole

Instant Hooligan you're right. I just checked and I stand corrected. It has always been from May that we get the adjustment.
