The 2nd protest by the FAU that was to take place in central today,has just been cancelled..
Apparently a record number of crew called in sick this morning,in order to support the rally and voice their anger+frustration..
This,no doubt,would have resulted in many CANCELLED flights,so cx did a 180 and delayed the medical scheme contributions that were suppose to come into effect on the 1st january 2008,until May 2008..
From the cx website:
According to the agreement, the FAU pledges to refrain from any industrial or other action related to the medical scheme that will affect the airline’s normal operations, especially during the upcoming peak Christmas/New Year period.
In a nutshell - The FAU's got CX by the balls!!!!
Good on ya Becky..keep up the pressure!!
ST and the AOA off course - NOWHERE in sight,as expected..
