Jtan, relax, no official date has been given!! I guess they are negotiating as we speak. Also, i guess the problem lies with other negotiations that took place (The dispute centres on a pay deal negotiated earlier this year that saw some lower-paid employees at the airline get a 10 per cent pay raise. The union accepted the deal on the basis that the amount being offered was the very best that British Airways could afford and that no higher offer would be made.
The agreement, however, included a so-called ‘me too’ clause which, in the event that BA did find extra money for a particular group of workers, would be extended to every other workgroup represented by Unite).
So i guess the money involved would be rather large but with inflation running this high they have to pay workers more especially after the paycut they had to endure. DYOR.
