The whole thing about the company wanting to meet with the union to discuss ways to improve things is just a delay tactic. It is for this reason that rumors always persist about any given topic. Items are always discussed, but never acted upon. This buys a few months at which time the company calls for a new topic of discussion, but again, nothing will change. If you are new to the airline business, you will recognize this as a positive step. But after a few decades of this, you begin to see nothing is really gained.

If the company truly wishes to address retention issues, they will do what all other non-aviation corporations would do. Find out what industry standard is in all aspects of employee compensation and benefits and move to match those aspects and maybe exceed them thereby creating a new industry standard.
