Motion · S5M-21618 · 30 Apr 2020
British Airways Planned Redundancies
The motion
That the Parliament calls on British Airways and other airlines to desist from what it sees as them using the COVID-19 outbreak as an opportunity to reduce jobs and employees' terms and conditions; asks them instead to explore all the funding options available to maintain the sustainability of jobs as part of an overall plan for business recovery once the current public health crisis is brought under control; calls on them to work with the UK Government to extend the duration of the Jobs Retention Scheme as a way of avoiding mass redundancies, and calls on the UK Government to accede to such a request.
