I couldn't see a case for further 457 visas to be issued, but people will need to now accept lower wages as new ventures will not be as lucrative. AWBC |
Mr Joyce flagged more job cuts could be on the cards in the future as operations at Avalon continued to be reviewed. He said the reality was that the heavy maintenance work at Tullamarine and Avalon had dropped off considerably, partly as a result of Qantas buying more modern aircraft which do not need to be serviced as often as older models. While he was unable to say how long Avalon would remain viable, Mr Joyce said it was inevitable that Qantas would one day have just one heavy maintenance facility in Australia.``We know we have to move to one maintenance facility over time,'' he said. |

think you will find "till the 747's are gone".....here we go again more redundancy's on offer all over ...hope its the case so no one gets tapped...the rim

Media Release was out before anyone told anything at Avalon .What a way to deal with Staff.:mad:
|
Maybe when new gov win next election and by then hopefully Joyce is gone maybe some Aussie CEO will run qantas and build a a a380 hangar but to late for tullamarine brothers,I had enough,going to Perth but not in mines.
|
Fed Sec,do you have any idea how many of the Tulla staff will be asked to move or how many have indicated an interest to move?

Well before any PIA took place during the dispute of last year the ALAEA offered Qantas pretty much what you suggested here. We offered, no transit check, no LAME on departure but we demanded there be one for each arrival so we could fix the broken ones. Qantas said no because they want everything and more. Don't think that the ALAEA incapable of being co-operative or progressive. Representing AMEs and LAMEs together is not a conflict of interest. Both groups have long sought one representing body. AMEs currently sit in big unions and the aviation sectors are about 1% of the membership of that union. What say do you think they get and how much do you think their leaders know about our industry? Remember before you answer I perform this role at VA. |
calls someone"sellout" then wants info.:hmm:

bottom feeders
The Scumbag bottom feeders are fishing already are they going to stop bringing in 457 visa holders now .:ugh::mad:
Aviation Labour Group would like AME'S located in Melbourne to apply to our website This job posting is for application only for any upcoming roles and has been created due to the current redundancies in the Melbourne area we hope that all Mechanical, Avionics and Structures AME'S can apply directly via this posting if you have any questions please call the Melbourne office 03 9310 3800 |
So now it is official, I guess it is time for John Borghetti to come good on his offer of taking on engineers that QF makes redundant.
John was it a mouthful of crap when you made the offer or are you still serious? |
Easy does it, best check what the offer was before you shoot your mouth off.
Some info here: Cookies must be enabled | Herald Sun But there is probably more around. |
So Fedsellout, of all aircraft arrivals for QF how many are required the attention of a LAME on arrival? Remember before you answer I perform this role at VA. Fed Sec,do you have any idea how many of the Tulla staff will be asked to move or how many have indicated an interest to move? John was it a mouthful of crap when you made the offer or are you still serious? |
Start the campaign to end 457 Visa NOW. We all need to look at the big picture here! Why are British, French, Singaporean, Indonesian, Bangladesh and Indian Workers here on temporary 457 Visas when 500+ Australian citizens have now been forced out of work. All unions need to move quickly ahead to the next hurdle in protecting Australian Jobs.
ALAEA must push this please Steve, Its not your job, its our job also. |
Start the campaign to end 457 Visa NOW. |
Hello Queensland!!
|
The 457 Visa charade has been going on for long enough!:mad:
The likes of AMSA have been hiding behind it as an excuse not to invest in training local employees, especially when it comes to removal of B1 restrictions. As an educated guess, I would say many of the soon to be out of work Qantas LAME's will not be full B1's either. Where are they going to find the $7,000 to $12,000 plus put food on the table for the five to fourteen weeks to gain these qualification so they can compete with the "cheap" imported labour? :ugh: |
457 visas ????
can someone answer me this....how many 457's are here that are licenced....and I mean licenced by CASA and have QF approvals on Qf aircraft....or are we talking about AME's here with 457 visas......the rim
|
AJ says eventually go to one base,Avalon workers will try to look some other jobs now or upgrade to different skills or do partime courses and eventually leave not waiting for another consolidation review,it will backfire qantas when this happens as they won't be able to get the skill workers other than employing 457 visa workers ,it has happen before.

Start the campaign to end 457 Visa NOW. Quote ALAEA Fed Sec: I absolutely agree. Will email an Industrial Officer in the Association to get onto it tomorrow. Lets hope that the ALAEA do not represent any 457 visa holders! If they do I suggest those members get out of that union fast! |
The recruitment agency is looking for 777 ,320.330.380 licenced for 457 visa applicant.not 737 .
