SIPTU members already voted in favour of all-out strike in the pension row over the Irish Airlines Superannuation Scheme (IASS) that has been dragging on for years. The pension scheme has a substantial deficit and years of negotiations have failed to deal with the insufficient funds, as reported previously in this newsletter. SIPTU reports the 98% and 96% of their members have now voted in favour of industrial and strike action. Spokespersons reiterated that the trade unions remain open to discussions with management on a possible resolution to the dispute. The management proposals include the use of new legislation which allows cuts in payments to current pensioners for the first time. They also mean current workers - as well as former workers who have not yet retired - would see a 20% cut in pensions benefit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.siptu.ie\u002Fmedia\u002Fpressreleases2014\u002Fmainnews\u002Ffullstory_17979_en.html\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.siptu.ie\u002Fmedia\u002Fpressreleases2014\u002Fmainnews ... \u003C\u002Fa>  \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.independent.ie\u002Firish-news\u002Faer-lingus-workers-vote-for-all-out-strike-29999991.html\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.independent.ie\u002Firish-news\u002Faer-lingus-workers-vote-for-all-out-strike ... \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishexaminer.com\u002Fireland\u002Fairport-unions-warn-of-action-259615.html\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishexaminer.com\u002Fireland\u002Fairport-unions-warn-of-action ... \u003C\u002Fa>  \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fa> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fa>.
