Unite has secured Luton airport staff employed by Menzies a pay rise worth more than 28 per cent.

Over 200 workers, employed as baggage handlers and check-in staff, will receive a backdated pay rise of 20 per cent from 1st October 2022.

From 1st February, pay will further increase by 8.5 per cent. Overtime rates will also increase in February, from time and a third to time and a half.

Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: “This is an excellent deal for our Menzies members at Luton airport and was possible because they stood together in a union.

“As this pay deal shows, Unite’s complete focus on defending and improving jobs, pay and conditions is paying dividends for our members.”

The deal was secured during annual pay negotiations and without the need for industrial action.

Unite regional officer Jeff Hodge said: “This deal is another reminder that workers looking to better their wages and working conditions should become a Unite member and get their colleagues to do the same.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
