Qantas workers to lobby pollies

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 19 Maret 2014 | 21.29

QANTAS workers and their union delegates from across Australia are flying to Canberra to warn politicians of the harm they say changes to the Qantas Sale Act will bring.

The Australian Services Union (ASU) says the Qantas Sale Act protects Australian jobs by requiring that Qantas headquarters is based in Australia.

The union's Assistant National Secretary Linda White said Prime Minister Tony Abbott did not seem to comprehend how changing that would damage the local economy and the reputation of the national carrier.

"Any changes to the Sale Act will lead to mass off-shoring of white collar jobs. We know that once jobs are off-shored they never come back," she said in a statement on Wednesday.

The union said it would meet with politicians in Canberra on Thursday along with Qantas workers and ASU delegates from all parts of the Qantas group.

The federal government this month announced plans to remove foreign ownership restrictions on Qantas after the airline announced 5000 job cuts.
