THE Equity Aviation strike, which would have affected such airlines as British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, Qantas and South African Airways, has been averted. This follows the signing of a four year wage agreement that commits management and workers to a longer term, from this current financial year to 2011. This, according to South African Transport and Allied Workers’ Union (Satawu) official, Sam Mefuwa, who told Travel News Now, that discussions had yielded a satisfactory for Equity Aviation workers. Satawu last week advised that workers had given it a mandate to intensify “failed” wage talks into a strike. Brought to you by TravelHub... Natalia Thomson (nataliat@nowmedia.co.za)
