Dublin Airport faces fresh strike threat

Industrial action is again on the cards at Dublin Airport Authority after staff said they were rejecting company proposals on the ailing pension scheme.

While Aer Lingus has been the centre of most media coverage on the Irish airlines superannuation scheme in recent weeks due to the threats of strike action, DAA and its staff have been in discussions on how to resolve the €750m deficit in the scheme.

Now Siptu has produced a document which, it says, breaks down how much their members in both DAA and Aer Lingus will receive on retirement depending on their years of service. It also details the staff expectation.
