Aer Lingus unions threaten strike over cuts
SIPTU, which represents half of Aer Lingus workers, fired a warning shot at management that no changes can be made without proper consultation with staff.
Following a meeting yesterday of up to 100 Aer Lingus shop stewards from Dublin, Cork and Shannon, the union said it is holding a protective ballot for industrial action over the next fortnight to ensure it can take immediate action if the airline management attempts to enforce job cuts or any other changes unilaterally.
