British Airways to begin fast-track training for strike-breaking cabin crew
Smart move!
British Airways has told employees with no flying experience they can become cabin crew within 21 days as it plans to build a strike-breaking workforce.
BA flights could be crewed by baggage handlers and check-in agents following three weeks' training ahead of industrial action that could take place as soon as 1 March. In a message to around 25,000 non-cabin crew staff, the airline said temporary recruits will operate a scaled-down service during industrial action, implying that the emphasis with be on passenger safety rather than customer service.
“You will be responsible for delivering a simplified service onboard, undertake duties similar to existing cabin crew and be responsible for the safety of our customers,” the company said.
