I, as well as many other in the company are prepared to make changes, but the one thing change i refuse to accept is the T&C's of the proposed new fleet. Other than that i am happy to work long, work harder and improve my effiencey as long as my money dosnt suffer. Why should that be a problem if they offer part time to those who want it, and unpaid leave, they have already stated it will save them millions.
How efficient is it to have cabin crew with majority of them on part-time contracts when you actually can have crew on full-time contracts?
How much work is not involved for scheduling to go over UPL on a daily basis and cover everything with SBY?
Think about the costs involved to keep the SEP of all those part-timers updated and still not able to use them 100%.
Overall having people on part-time is probably a lot more expensive than having people on full-time employed as you need less.
