There are retirements, sure, but not that many that you need 10 new starters per fortnight.
My theory is, Qantas is fed up with the high rate of attrition at all their subsidiaries. They are hiring on their new EBA agreed upon “B scale” pay and will shortly announce they have “over employed” to mainline and it’s either: go take LWOP and work for Cobham, Alliance or National Jet or you’re fired.
It happened during the GFC when a bunch of good blokes were forced to go to JQ or lose their jobs….
Makes sense doesn’t it? No one will quit the subsidiary, quitting there is quitting QF. Employees for life.
Well played QF. I’d be getting a right hand seat asap dudes.
what exactly does COBHAM have to do with Qantas.
