Less than two years ago Qantas pilots were told to make $8 million worth of savings or pilots would be made redundant.
does not equal
The Company has asked AIPA to find a saving of roughly $8 million to cover the cost of carriage of the pilots that may be surplus. AIPA is in the process of verifying costings of various options proposed and will be meeting with the Company this coming Friday to negotiate, in more detail, the options available to both parties. AIPA will keep the membership informed as these discussions progress and, should changes to your Certified Agreement be required, it will firstly be discussed by the Committee of Management, after which a majority vote of members would be required.
I'm told nothing came of this.
I have also been told this happened.
the Company and AIPA have been encouraging long haul mainline members who can afford it, to consider taking Flexi-Lines to avoid the need for redundancies - and 247 of you have responded.
