Aer Lingus has established a new company in an attempt to prevent new staff from joining the airline’s defined benefit pension scheme, according to reports.
Most Aer Lingus staff are currently employed by a limited company which is a subsidiary of Aer Lingus plc and avail of a defined benefit scheme, the Irish Independent reports.
However, the paper says that any new employees joining the carrier will be employed by a new company, Aer Lingus (Ireland), which means they are not eligible to join the airline’s lucrative defined benefit scheme. These staff can instead join a new defined contribution scheme.
