[Margaret Pilkington]

I'm sure that BA will go to appeal......they cite safety as the reason for denying this woman's request to work part time. Pilots need to clock up so many flying hours to maintain competency and they clearly think that she won't be able to achieve this on part time hours.......and she is pregnant again so what chance has she got. I'm with BA on this one.
I'm all for equality, but this woman has done nothing for equality.

Oh, just by the by......at interview you are not allowed to ask a female applicant questions about their intention to have a family.....or about provision they have made regarding child care......it is seen as discriminatory.
