RASA Pensioners expect
Return Pension Promise Broken to a Promise Kept!
Annual income in payment cuts up to 22.53%
Cumulative to date c€56m
January 2015 - April 2024
Pensioners were receiving this income and it was taken away unilaterally and were excluded from mitigation with no buy-out/transfer value or mitigation.
PENSIONERS ACTUAL MONTHLY INCOME REDUCED
Decisions to cut our monthly income were made and signed by Aer Lingus/Daa company boards/shareholders and Trustees and approved by Irish Pension Authority following Industrial Relations negotiations between employers and trade unions.
But no voice for retired pensioners in receipt of pension at the table where these decisions to reduce IASS pensioners income without mitigation for this one third of members with average of 72 years[in 2015] were made.
RASA is a volunteer organisation.
Our aim is to
- promote and protect the interests of pensioners with particular reference to pensions, social welfare, health, travel concessions and other social concerns.
- provide a centre and focal point for retired aviation staff.
Retirees from Aer Lingus, DAA (formerly Aer Rianta),SAA (Shannon Authority) FLS/SR-Technics (formerly Team Aer Lingus) and others are all welcome to join RASA.
