The British Airline Pilots’ Association has secured an agreement to provide representation to UK-based pilots working for SAS, negotiating pay deals and terms and conditions.
The deal comes two months after BALPA secured a recognition agreement with Ryanair.
The latest recognition agreement is with Dublin-based CAE Parc Aviation, which provides aviation personnel and services to airlines, employing more than 1,000 pilots.
The deal will specifically represent UK-based SAS pilots within the company, as it is setting up a new Heathrow base.
BALPA national officer, Terry Brandon, said: "BALPA represents around 10,000 pilots across the UK and we’re delighted to welcome pilots at CAE Crewing Services to the BALPA family.
"We are now looking forward to developing a constructive relationship with them, which we believe will be beneficial to both pilots and the airline."
Frank Collins, general manager of CAE Crewing Services, said: "We believe that signing recognition with BALPA is a positive step for CAE Crewing Services and our pilots.
"We look forward to working with BALPA and demonstrating to our pilots that we are committed to ensuring our company is a great place to work."
