Ryanair rejects claims its pilot pay negotiations are ‘a sham’
Ryanair’s director of human resources strategy and operations has rejected claims the airline’s pilot representative system for negotiating pay and conditions was a “sham”. The “employee representative committee” (ERC) system within the airline involves 2 to 5 pilots at each of Ryanair’s bases around Europe meeting HR department representatives and negotiating 5-year collective deals in the same way as in most negotiations, Darrell Hughes told the High Court. “They are certainly not a sham,” he said on the fifth day of Ryanair’s action against 3 founders of the Ryanair Pilot Group (RPG) Evert Van Zwol, John Goss and Ted Murphy, over alleged defamation in a RPG statement issued in 2013 which Ryanair claims falsely said the company misled investors. The three deny the claims. <br/>
