Board Cites United Troubles in Pay Dispute

Quote:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A presidential board said on Sunday mechanics at United Airlines (NYSE:UAL - news) deserved a pay raise, though the panel sympathized with the carrier's claim it could not afford wage hikes because its survival was at stake.

The Presidential Emergency Board recommendation to the White House extended executive intervention in the long-standing contract dispute for another 30 days, meaning the union cannot strike before then.
