Pay ballot delayed as Aer Lingus studies ruling
Fresh doubts were cast tonight on a deal between workers and management at Aer Lingus, which was expected to pave the way for the airline’s privatisation next month.
The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union (SIPTU) said the State-owned company appeared to be setting pre-conditions to yesterday’s Labour Court recommendation, which would see staff getting a 4% wage rise over and above the national pay agreement.
