Dear fellow members,
I am writing to confirm that the GMB redeployment ballot has now concluded and our members have voted to accept the final company offer as follows:
To Accept: 69%
To Reject: 31%
I have advised the company today that the GMB have voted to accept the offer.
Can I take this opportunity to thank all colleagues for their hard work and support during this ballot.
Yours sincerely
Mick Rix
National Officer
All the branches of the GMB Union at British Airways conducted ballots on the proposed company changes to the redeployment agreement.
This ballot has now been completed.
We are currently awaiting the results which will be communicated once the GMB NSP representatives have met with the GMB full time and national officers.
We will bring you this information once we have it and thank you for your continued support.
Dear members,
As you may be aware the company has outlined its plans for the “transformation” of Gatwick operations. Naturally our GMB reps at LGW are concerned about these changes as are your reps at Heathrow.
The company recently posted a profit for 2011/2012 resulting in the Employee Reward Plan bonus being paid to staff. This doesn’t look like a company in need of major restructuring or cost saving.
We urge the company to take these changes off the table and work with your union on the future of BA in a constructive manner.
The GMB Branch x54 at Heathrow will offer all the support to our fellow GMB members at Gawtick during this difficult time.
Any further information about future changes will be communicated on this website as and when we get it.
Yours in solidarity
