When off duty you still represent Qantas
How does that work?? Is there any legal grounds for such a claim??

For example the Prime Minister can do certain things in the capacity as Prime Minister, the local member, or as a private citizen.

He is still the PM but not acting in that capacity.

Same with QF. If you are in uniform, or on company business you are acting as an employee of the company, if I am on holidays or on a RDO I am acting as a private citizen so QF cannot have any say over what I do.

What legal grounds do QF have to control your personal opinion?

Say you flew on a competing carrier and Twittered that the competing carrier service was far and away better than QF's are QF going to haul you over the coals?


Employees are bound to protect commercial in-confidence information and to demonstrate and promote a high-level of professionalism, honesty and integrity when refering to their employment at any time
I think there is an American judge who may have a differing opinion about certain members of QF management.
