T&G threatens Easyjet pay strike
The Transport & General Workers' Union will ballot 1,500 Easyjet cabin crew about whether to take strike action at the budget airline over pay. Easyjet has offered a wage increase of 6.5 percent over two years, with bonuses of 2 to 4 percent. The T&G said that other workers such as pilots had a better deal at a time when Easyjet's profits were improving.
