The QF IR Team is waiting for the Alliance takeover to be approved. They will then approach NAA Unions and Reps to begin negotiations regarding a new EA. They’ll then apply the standard playbook of “sign this rubbish deal or we will replace you”.
What we all need to do is encourage and support NAA Pilots to get negotiating BEFORE QF force their hand. Go in hard and fast.
Even if your not an NAA Pilot or you couldn’t care less about what happens in Perth a quick simple email to your union asking them to begin negotiations for a new NAA EBA could make a massive difference to your pay in the future.
The unions will not ignore 300+ emails from pilots all around Australia asking them to get negotiating.
