Qantas case dismissed in High court

Just nowBy Liana Walker

Qantas has lost its High Court appeal over the sacking of 1700 workers during the pandemic.

The jobs of baggage handlers and cleaners at ten airports were outsourced, as the airline faced a dramatic decline in business.

Qantas maintained it made the decision for sound commercial reasons.

But the Transport Workers Union told the High Court the airline had also been motivated to head off industrial action when things returned to normal, in breach of the Fair Work Act.

Today the High Court unanimously dismissed the appeal by Qantas.
