Seniority OHS and Safety
Hi. I work for an Australian carrier with a seniority system for rosters. This affects trips, days off, annual leave, hotel rooms, meal choices on board , work position etc. no new crew have started under this system for about 8 years so there has been no movement and never will be. Can crew tell me about the rostering systems the different airlines use , how they think they work regarding being fair to all crew , and their thoughts on seniority. Thank you. Our work system seems very out of date and unfair to me and a lot of other junior crew. I am junior after 10 years , and always will be.
Lack of control in the work place has been linked to coronary disease, muscular skeletal disease, negative mental health outcomes, fatigue and other medical conditions. Junior crew suffer from a distinct lack of control in their workplace.
