QANTAS executives discussed locking out the airline workforce two weeks before the company grounded its fleet last year, prompting union claims last night that the airline had misled federal parliament.
Gareth Evans, the airline's chief financial officer, told Fair Work Australia that the airline's executive committee had discussed the option of locking out the workforce "probably two weeks" before aircraft were grounded last October.
Wake up Australia!
Massive numbers of Hotel rooms booked well before the event (apparently)!
