BBC announced that it wanted to cap pensionable pay at 1% from April 2011 and revalue pensions at a lower level.
Meanwhile, it was revealed that top managers at the corporation have a pension slush fund that gaurantees them big payouts while cutting those of staff.
NUJ general secretary, Jeremy Dear said:“It’s almost as if BBC management are trying to goad staff, with their blatant hypocrisy and greed.”
