British Airways Strike Effect Disputed
This article relates somewhat to our last exam's materials, with the problems with unions and the workers strike that go along with them. A strike by British Airways cabin crew members entered its second day Sunday, causing further travel disruptions but fewer than the airline had expected. The dispute between British Airways’ management and the Unite trade union, which is over working conditions and pay freezes, intensified over the weekend after the two sides disagreed about the effectiveness of the strike.

Unions can have a big impact on a company. The crew members want their working conditions to become better and their pay to increase. Travel disruptions may lead the management to compromise depending on how powerful the union is because the strikes are causing British Airways to loose out on revenue.
