Unite to ballot 14,000 British Airways cabin crew over imposition of contracts

26th October 2009

Derek Simpson, joint general secretary of Unite, said today (Monday): "Unite is going to ballot our British Airways cabin crew members on industrial action.

"BA management's determination to impose unacceptable contractual changes on cabin crew leaves us no alternative.

"We will strongly support our members if they vote for industrial action, while of course remaining ready to negotiate with the company. Negotiation, not imposition, is the only proper way to conduct industrial relations."

ENDS
