British Airways engineers strike called off

Thursday, 05 Sep, 2022 0

A strike by British Airways maintenance workers has been averted as union Unite hailed a victory for members.

BA has agreed to restore three days leave entitlement that was cut during the pandemic.

“This is another victory in Unite’s campaign to return British Airways’ workers’ terms and conditions to their pre-pandemic level,” the union said.

“Our members at BA are absolutely determined that the employer gives back what it took from the workforce,” Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said

Unite said it was only engineers that that had holiday entitlement cut.

The workers had been set to stage strike action this autumn.

Unite said the holiday pay was `stolen’ from 2,000 engineers.

A strike would have caused ‘massive disruption’ to the airline, Unite said.

The engineering team maintain BA’s fleet of 280 aircraft at Heathrow, Gatwick and other bases.
