Assuming the total resource is finite (either from the public purse or the income from order books) is it better to employ fewer staff on the same or better pay and conditions, or reduce pay and conditions but employ more people? The unemployment stats would suggest that companies are opting for the latter rather than letting staff go.... but union action against pay restraint and pension changes is pushing in completely the opposite direction. I'm concerned that if the unions prevail, all that will happen is that more of their members end up out of work.
