Aer Lingus staff told of survival plan

Workers and management at Aer Lingus tonight learned the proposed survival plan for the embattled company on the day that 250 more jobs in the aviation industry were threatened in Dublin.

The Labour Relations Commission (LRC) suggested, among other proposals, a wage freeze in Aer Lingus until April 2003 and a cut in overtime pay from double-time to time-and-three quarters.
