My sources also advise me that it is the law in PNG for any employee (expat or national) who is taxed in PNG to be entitled to LSL, it starts accumulating after 3 years of service I believe. "
I go along with that. There have been instances where this has been challenged successfully in the past. Unfortunately those companies that don't live up to their legal responsibilties know that the likelihood of being held to account through the legal system is quite remote. Most expats do not stay long enough to have an amount owing to them that would withstand the legal cost of recovering it.
You don't have to look far to find unscrupulous management in PNG aviation companies!
