Qantas employement freeze

[satos]

I heard on the rumor network that there is an employment freeze at Qantas.
Can anyone here substantiate this.

[C441]

Yes....but not for pilots

[speedbirdhouse]

........ or other operational staff.

The reason I asked the question was that melbourne heavy maintenance was apparently going to be hiring engineers for the 737 hangar and it all suddenly went quite.

[worry-wort]

Also now hiring casual LAME positions and permanent AME positions for
SYD Base Maintenance.

People with LOI's are still getting called for start dates, so there's still movement. As to actual figures/forecasts/rates....??
