THE Transport Salaried Staff’s Association has called on First Choice Holidays to consider pay rises for shop staff after news that group chief executive Peter Long earned £1.43 million last year – a 23% increase.

Association development manager Jo Twite said she believed counter staff had made as much a donation to the company’s £98.3 million pre-tax profits as anyone else.

She hopes this will be recognised with a suitable increase for the staff working the shop floors, many of whom find themselves on the bottom end of the pay bracket.

First Choice was unable to comment.
