In order to quell the rampant sick leave burn at Avalon (Qantas Base Maintenance) , which is currently 33 days per person per year, prior to the base shut down in March, Forstaff and Qantas have offered an attendance incentive. A letter has been sent to each employee stating that THE ENTIRE WORK FORCE needs to achieve an absenteeism average below 3.85%, that is 10 days per person per year for the remaining 3 months of operation. If they can achieve this they will get 2 WHOLE weeks additional redundancy. What a joke!
