Fixed Term Crew in short haul work under the terms and conditions of our EBA, therefore I cant see where the cost saving is either of course the overall liability is less than permanent crew but still I dont see any major reduction in cost here and as far as I know MAM casuals work under our EBA therefore even if they were employed by MAM still I dont see the cost saving.
If they were employed through Jet Connect NZ and based in Sydney WELL, there is a real cost saving but I dont even think that is possible but who knows.
