BALPA "One Stop Shop"


BALPA

As with our other trade union clients, we aim to provide a “One Stop Shop” by offering a broad range of legal advice and assistance to the British Air Line Pilots Association (“BALPA”) and its membership.


Employment law


The services that we provide to BALPA includes expert advice and representation in respect of all employment law claims including unfair dismissal, breach of contract, discrimination, harassment and compromise agreements. We have extensive experience in dealing with employment rights in both UK and foreign jurisdictions.


In addition to pure employment law we also advise upon and assist their members with issues ancillary to their employment including submissions to the Department of Transport seeking Certificates of Disregard for unspent criminal convictions and advice and representation for Civil Aviation Authority prosecutions.


On a collective level, we advise BALPA on a wide range of matters including recognition and industrial action, collective agreements, consultation on redundancies and TUPE transfers. We also provide training and seminars for BALPA representatives and officials.


If you are a BALPA member and you require employment law advice, then you should contact BALPA in the first instance on 020 8476 4000.


Legal helpline - 0208 476 4099


We offer BALPA members access to a free legal helpline. Advice can be obtained for the member themselves* or on behalf of their family.
