it is outdated inflexible work practices

their legacy problem which i believe is mainly centred around engineering practices, which is ironic because the engineering practices have given it in no small part its safety record.
It's easy to roll this line out but lets look at the work practices and I ask you to identify the ones we are talking about, that way they can be discussed and not just brought up as a throw away line.
I think every employee is conscious of the fact that you need to be efficient, however the problem that QF has, is that the senior management like to throw the terms like world's best practice in.
What is world's best practice?
This term should be read as the cheapest we can get away with.
The only time we have heard about comparisons was with the recent senate enquiry, which touched on the levels of lame coverage between different maintenance organisations.
Every process should be examined to look for efficiencies, but also accepting work protocols used elsewhere because they can get away with it, shouldn't be looked as the holy panacea.
