Re: ALAEA impotence
Avalon. Another ALAEA success story. Setup by the union as a joint venture for overflow work out of Sydney. 1000 heavy staff now reduced to 200 so a cut price facility within our country can reduce the wages and conditions of Aussie LAMEs.
Mr Qantas, when you are allowed to return, can you please elaborate on the wins the ALAEA has had over the past 2 years within the courts to defend our wages, conditions and job security? Can you do that without being abusive to the other readers? The only win I am aware of is the battle to keep the AMWU out of Avalon. How does this benefit our members? A single union representing engineers at a cut price maint facility that CR and friends helped setup.
Mr Qantas would you like to explain what the ALAEA is doing for the members at Avalon? What have they done to obtain parity between the Forstaff guys and those at Qantas? Do you understand what you are saying or see the big picture of what the airline and union have done together to damage our members? Where are the 800 guys who no longer work in HM?
Take your experienced leaders and idolise them in your own capacity. LAMEs at Qantas and Avalon have had enough of the secret meetings and deals behind closed doors. The actions of the senior ALAEA officials is completely transparent and every step as predictable as the next. Just waiting for them to invite BD back into the Bexley offices to "fight for our jobs".
