Huge SAA flight cancellations

What if SAA employees lose their jobs (SAA shuts down, but that's a discussion all by itself) and take the unions to court, the court says unions are liable for job losses, and unions must pay? Just what if...

FWIW we're in the process of shutting down one of our company's branches, and that in itself is a whole lot of paperwork, actions to do etc etc etc. Not as simple as it sounds.

I pledge R1000 for that legal fund. I would like nothing more than to see the unions taken down a few rungs. They're little more than a protection racket at this point.
 
The decision to grant an 8% increase and postpone restructuring is the ANC signalling the world that it does not care about a downgrade.

Think October's budget was bad. Wait for February.

Restructuring is going ahead
 
In fact, they forget the inconvenient fact that those who corrupt public sector employees and representatives are businesspeople who want to get an unfair advantage.”

They are hardly business people. More like shelf company owning cadres. They couldn't make an honest buck if they tried.

Unf#$%ing believable - has no money, wants more from the taxpayer but still gives 13th cheques. :mad:

Unfortunately they haven't gone into administration therefore, cannot pick what contractual obligations not to honour, especially if the 13th cheque is part of employee packages.
 
They are only not under administration because they refuse to release the audits for the past two years.

They are trading recklessly and should be dragged into court.

Outrage after SAA a no-show at meeting with Scopa

Embattled SAA skipped a planned meeting with Parliament's watchdog Standing Committee on Public Accounts.

Embattled national carrier South African Airways (SAA) on Wednesday skipped a planned meeting with Parliament's watchdog Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa).

SAA only informed Scopa on Wednesday morning that it would not be attending, resulting in an irate media statement from members of Parliament (MPs).


"The Standing Committee on Public Accounts has received correspondence today from South African Airways (SAA) indicating its non-availability for the meeting that was scheduled for this evening," Scopa said.

"This is in addition to the fact that SAA has not submitted the information that was requested by the committee two weeks ago. Scopa is currently considering a legal opinion that it has received from the Parliamentary Legal Services on this matter."

Scopa had asked SAA to submit legal opinions regarding their obligation to post annual results -- and their failure to two so for two years running -- and their obligation not to trade recklessly.
