GF PCE has issued a 'directive/mission statement' in which the following is targetted:

1. 5% cut in staff from 1Sept01 levels to be achieved by 31Dec01.

2. A further 15% reduction in the 1Jan02 manpower level by 31Dec2002.

That will equate to a 19.25% reduction in staff (network wide) from yesterday by end of 2002.
This does not directly affect crew (tech/cabin) other than only th operational requirement (number) will be maintained.

Of course, this target could actually be achieved (exceeded!) by tomorrow, but won't be; 'cos you cannot 'dispose of' nationals, despite the company having a surplus of 1500!! :eek:
