This letter constitutes notification to you in accordance with section blah blah of the FWA 2009 that Jetstar refuses to accept the performance of any work by you until you are prepared to perform all your normal duties.
Accordingly, if you engage in one or both of the partial work bans listed above, you will not be entitled to any payment for the entire duration of the partial work ban - The period from 0001 on 14 Dec 19 to 2359 20 Dec 2019.
Is that for real? Is Jetstar locking out every pilot who participated in the stoppages this weekend for the whole week ahead?
Certainly puts the financial burden of PIA disproportionately on the backs of the unfortunate crews who were rostered on this weekend. Respect to those pilots for copping the pain to advance the cause for all their colleagues.
