Prospect air traffic controllers reject Highland and Islands Airports pay offer
Air traffic controllers at Highland and Islands Airports have rejected the latest pay offer from the company.
Highlands and Islands Airports operates Inverness Airport and several others.
It has been in a long running pay dispute with air traffic controllers which has resulted in a series of strikes.
No further strike action is planned as yet, but action short of a strike continues by members of the Prospect union.
Prospect negotiations officer David Avery said: “Our members have voted to reject the latest pay offer from HIAL.
"We will now consult with members on how best to move towards a resolution of this dispute and will also meet with the company to try to find an acceptable way forward.”
A spokesman for Highlands and Islands Airports said: “This is a disappointing result.
"We presented a fair and reasonable offer to the air traffic control staff.
"We have been in touch with Prospect and the union has agreed to meet in the near future and we are hopeful that these discussions will be positive.”
