This Media Release by Qantas says that in the "short term" they are going to transform the company from a loss-making to a profitable organisation. The means to achieve this include the retirement of older aircraft and "around 1000 jobs will be affected" - presumably some retraining and some compulsory redundancies.
A word of caution here. In my opinion this Media Release document needs to be handled with care, because it is easy to jump to the wrong conclusions about what is intended by several general sentences.
