Thursday May 15, 01:14 PM Qantas engineers drop industrial action
Qantas engineers have backed down from planned industrial action, indicating they will accept a smaller increase to a wage demand.
ACTU president Sharan Burrow stepped in, asking the union to call off its four-hour stop-work meeting Friday afternoon, which would have caused Qantas to cancel a number of domestic flights.
She also said the engineers would be willing to accept a rise somewhere in between the five per cent they demanded and the three per cent Qantas had continued to offer over the previous 18 months of failed wage negotiations.
