Thermal Image I did say that the locals in most Airlines also had not much protection either.
As for those SQ6 Pilots you surely do not think they could expect anything other than termination??? They had to go IMHO '.Sorry I will do better next time' is not an option.
Also expats have' term' contracts unlike locals in SIA so apart from having the 3 months notice they can just choose not to renew one's contract,so I think it fair to say that ex-pats have less job security,at least in SIA.
I doubt if 'last in first out' will apply in SIA's case as they do not value loyalty,more an excuse to rid themselves of those in their little black book and those with large services increments and with children at expensive schools perhaps???? I think I had better start packing my bags!! SIA do however hate letting people go who are still under 'Bondage' as they seem to think we are getting something for nothing . Time will tell if things get any worse.
