Firstly, congratulations to the AFAP Jetstar Council for fighting this outrageous contract, both in court and by mobilising the voice of your members.
I do have a question though regarding the court action you have launched. Rather than fighting the fact that Jetstar are side-stepping the EBA, it seems that you are arguing their interpretation of the Air Pilots Award.
I base that on this comment:
The proceedings have been commenced on the basis that we believe that Jetstar Group Pty Ltd has or proposes to contravene the Air Pilots Award.
Does this mean that Jetstar are completely within their legal rights to employ pilots on the Award outside the EBA?
I hope that is not the case but I am far from an expert on IR law.
