Qf LAME EBA Negotiations Begin

[QF94]

Interesting thing will be which 4 - 5 items outstanding; job security, renumeration, quotas, LAMEless Tarmac, redundancy?????

1. Job Security - Not negotiable. Forget job security, unless you have a seat on the board.
2. Remuneration - Standard 3%. Very surprised if more.
3. Quotas - Reduced
4. LAMEless tarmacs - Domestic first, following J*'s example. Unsure about International, as ALL carriers at S.I.T. have LAME's on their aircraft.
5. See point 3. 1,000 mentioned in August (although mainly cabin crew), more to follow soon after the FWA decisions and rumour has it April 2012. Numbers? Don't know.
