Emirates airline offers staff unpaid leave
Sounds like an April fools joke.....
Dubai: Emirates airline yesterday announced that it has decided to offer unpaid leave to its cabin crew."After a careful review of our operational requirements, we have decided to offer our cabin crew staff the opportunity to apply for unpaid leave on a purely voluntary basis, starting from May 2009. In anticipation of our growing fleet, Emirates' recruitment efforts over the past 12 months have been highly successful in meeting our operational requirements. Combined with a sharp drop in cabin crew attrition, we now find ourselves in a position to be more flexible as an employer," an Emirates spokesperson said in a statement."We believe some of our staff will welcome the opportunity to take time off to pursue personal interests such as: further studies, hobbies, or simply to spend time with family and friends," the airline said.
Cabin crew may opt for unpaid leave from a period of one month up to a maximum of six months. "While on leave they will still be employees of the airline, and continue to be eligible for various benefits including paid accommodation and travel concessions."

All the F/O's fly their ass off !!!
Wait for the new package to see your salaries decreased by 20 %, the same amount that will go directly into JH's pockets..... with an increase of productivity......
EK has the proper attitude with offering unpaid leave to volunteers, here in EY you just have one single right :
FLY beyond safety for minimum wages and shut up. Good recipe for disaster. A few guys even fall asleep during take off run.... impressive

a big line i must say.But now finally starting the MFF.
But the good thing is that everybody will be upgrade in the A330
not in the A320 (They say,they don't want to mix new cadet pilots with new born captains).

Just wait for the "conditions"!
I guess it will be:
- minimum 4 days, maximum 30 days with a MAA TA in between
(just that you don't lose the touch of working)
- not in conjunction with existing regular leave
- only if you have already taken the full regular allotment
- only in top bid months
- only in crap seasons
- a COC before and a DAC TA right after
- paired with the rest of the month with only ADs
If no one wants it, then it will be allocated
