Ongoing Pay Freeze For Aer Lingus Staff
Until a deal is reached in an ongoing Aer Lingus pensions dispute, staff will face a continued pay freeze, the airline's director of change and engagement, Sean Murphy has said.
My Murphy wrote to the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) informing it of the continuing impasse.
The differences between unions and the airline are thought to be so great that the threat of industrial action during the spring can't be ruled out.
Aer Lingus has been engaged in a long-running effort with unions to thrash out a solution to tackling the €800 deficit at the Irish Aviation Superannuation Scheme (IASS).
The Labour Court will now draft its own proposals to finally resolving outstanding issues.
