You either want special treatment or you want equality… either is fair and either is logical. What is illogical and unfair is wanting both. How experienced is her husband and will he want half hours to spend more time with a child which is also presumably his?

Who is going to hire a married woman now?

Guys we had this thread when the case first went to tribunal. I will repeat what I told you at the time, as the full facts are as ever not being made clear in the press.

The issue was in fact that BA changed the rules to suit their needs.

The Starmers based their timing to have a family in part on the fact that the rules allowed for her to reduce her working hours to make childcare easier. She made her application for part-time while on maternity leave, which was approved. She later recieved a letter telling her that due to a change of rules her part-time contract would not be honoured. A manager then later admitted that the change was made to discourage the growing numbers of female pilots from applying for part-time contracts.

Sex discrimination? anyone ells who has a baby will have the meternity leave then return to work. Either stick to the contract or find a new airline.

BA’s side. It’s all in their contract. She had her maternity leave… either fly and get child minding or find a job that suites you better.

Its not BAs fault she and her husband decided on a family, knowing FULL well they were both pilots on a rotational shift pattern.

With the amount of money she earns she should be able to afford a childminder, having kids is no excuse not to do the work you are employed to do.

And at the end of the day, it could be bad for women wanting to get into this line of work because airlines will just assume that they will want to have brats and deny them the chances they deserve to pursue a career as an airline pilot. All too often companies have used the brat excuse for not promoting women, not all women want to be saddled with brats and those who do should make provisions themselves.

I side with BA, she signed a contract if her needs do not fit it with a Multi national then she should look elsewhere.

Comet, you say with the amount of money she earns…… I don’t think it’s about money. Maybe she wants to see her kid.

BA’s side. She signed a contract, and now she can’t stick to it. Thats her problem, not theirs. Whats worse is that she has announced she is pregnant AGAIN! Takes the mickey a bit.
