They may be looking to recruit wozzel,overheard a lot of swissport blokes saying that they are now short of ramp ops because most people took the redundency package that swissport offered them!!!

Wozzel, i understand your frustration and yes sometimes it's best to let of steam which helps to stop the anger building up inside. We do have a weak management structure at the moment but that's not all their fault i'm afraid to say, head office have a large part to play in this so when they say jump, you know the rest!

That's not strictly true wozzel. They are much in the firing line as the ramp ops. It does look a bit suspicious that the management look untouchable but we know that's not entirely true. The losses will come from all directions of Servisair including management if needed.

Do you believe that the management of Servisair are untouchable Sat 1, believe you me my friend that is so untrue. It is down to the managers of Servisair to try and gain more Work for the company but if things are going wrong along the line then desicions have to be made and the managers are just as much in trouble as the workforce. Like you said before Sat 1 who ever is the last one out don't forget to turn the lights off!!!!!

Might be because that they've just made the top HR person redundant...

On the rest...
Think several people have inflated ideas about how much influence local airport management have on contracts; most of the contracts are signed and delivered before the local team know about them.

Like most airports and companies; there is good and not so good in all areas. The trick is identify and then remove the 'not so good'. Sadly though Unions get in the way of this with their insistence on length of service means more than ability and delivery.

What is for sure is that the aviation business is very volatile and the economic downturn, both here and over the pond, is going to put more pressure on airlines to get better handling deals i.e. cheaper.

Everybody is in for a tough few years.

Everybody is in the firing line wozzel,including management. I believe that there are at least 5 positions going from the managers section and then the rest will be split between F.O.H and ramp. The last figure that i heard was about 16 people for redundancy, but don't forget you need to take into account anybody that wishes for voluntary redundancy!!!!!!

If you read groundhands post he has hit the nail on the head. There are good working colleagues amongst the ramp and then the desirables but as he pointed out the union do tend to get in the way somewhat.

That's hope we all have a good xmas and a happy newyear, see you on the other side XXXXXXXXXX
