I understand that approximately 43% of 14000 cabin crew are part time (=6000 individuals)
If there is a requirement to remove 2000 MPE from the business, and the average part timer works 66% (equal shares between 50% and 75% plus 150 at 33%), then 6000 out of the remaining 8000 must have applied for part time.
A few rough assumptions in there but is this realistic?
Can so many people from a workforce afford to go part time, leaving the equivalent of only 14% working full time?
I doubt it.
