BA redundancies
Persuade BA that this is not the time to use the pandemic as an opportunity to make 24% of their workforce redundant and the remainder to accept significantly inferior terms and conditions
Why is this important?
BA has announced plans to lay off up to 12,000 employees, despite already having suspended more than 22,000 under the UK Government's furlough scheme. This affects a huge number of long term staff.
Trade unions have described the redundancies as "an act of smash and grab opportunism", "a huge blow" and "irresponsible, dangerous and destructive". If everyone reading this signs the petition then we can show BA that now is not the time to lay off loyal staff or make the remaining ones sign inferior contracts
