Jetcraft new conditions?

[Icarus2001]

An AWA is an industrial instrument registered under Australian law, which must pass the “no disadvantage” test and provides for the terms, conditions and remuneration under which it engages it’s staff.

I believe that you will find that the no disadvantage test clause went up in a cloud of smoke last year. Have a look at the NJS AWA thread, award minimum for a 146/717 FO is about $69K but the AWA was $61K. There are now only five (I think) areas protected in an AWA, relativity to the award is NOT one of them.

Poto - as it happens I am not real keen on my employees being on PPrune talking about internal matters. People who've been around for any period of time would realise that our company has taken confidentiality clauses very seriously over the years

Yes we can't have the troops actually having a mechanism to talk to each other openly about the company without fear of retribution. A company with NOTHING to hide does NOT NEED confidentiality clauses. Please don't scream commercial reasons.

I have no connection with Jetcraft but it would appear that company is meeting it’s legal obligations under existing Australian industrial legislation – unlike a number of aviation related companies who blatantly exploit vulnerable staff with apparent impunity.
Should you have issue with the legislative framework which provides for Australian AWAs, may I suggest you pursue the matter direct with your elected representative, not the company and not in this thread?

Nice try Loose Wheel,
Whilst you try and sound intelligent and as if you know what you're on about, the fact is you have'nt a clue!
The no disadvantage test no longer exists, and just for the record, this particular company has a history of exploiting vulnerable staff with apparent impunity.
I speak from personal experience, so dont quote me any nonsense about this company meeting its" legal obligations" in regard to its employees.

Well done Danny.

Having no affiliation with you or your company I do however applaud you for your honest comments. GA is tuff, costs are high and if people don't like their conditions, talk to the company and negotiate or leave. You are never going to stop whingers. Some people just can't be pleased and others don't appreciate oportunities given. However some do and those you find don't post and complain. Keep up the good work.
