A date for the judgement has not yet been set. NUMSA and SACCA say they will await the court’s decision and insist there is evidence of plans to retrench staff.
Judge Graham Moshoana said in a televised judgment that SAA’s business rescue team didn’t have to consult unions yet because it hadn’t issued workers with formal dismissal notices. A spokeswoman for the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa, which lodged the court application together with the South African Cabin Crew Association, said the two unions would appeal Friday’s judgment.
“There is general consensus that SAA is overstaffed by at least 30%,” the DA said in a statement. “There is absolutely no way that SAA can be rescued, if at all, without massive staff retrenchments.”
RSA might be slowly sliding backward. Let them be careful how they are handling these issues right to the land one. They need open minds and stubborn positions which they can collectively stand upon .

The salaries and wages costs are exorbitant and there is no productivity let alone customer service. SAA have some very rude incompetent staff. I feel sorry for those who work really hard.
