what might make applicants think twice is if an add by the union or ACTU or the company explaining to the public there are no full time jobs available. Flying for Mam or as a kiwi base will not give you entry into QF mainline - at all!!!
Heavily emphasise that there will be No way of ever becoming a full time employee by flying as stated above.
Nothing illegal in that. In fact it is supporting the Companies employment process and transparency of hire.
Maybe the FAAA can ask the Company to highlight that in their recruitment adds so there is no confusion or false hopes for people who could be persuing other avenues of employment which offer greater opportunities and provide reasonable benefits such as annual leave/LSL/ sick leave etc.

Be aware there will always be a small contingent of the work force who is happy with a casual conditions for short term periods.

Im sure if the Company asked there MAM casuals how many would seek to transfer to full time employment with above conditions there wouldnt be many casuals left.
