Numsa condemns Comair’s retrenchment plans
JOHANNESBURG – The National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (Numsa) has condemned Comair’s proposed retrenchment of 200 employees to improve efficiency.
Comair, the JSE listed aviation company, initiated a Section 189 consultation process with organised labour last Monday to ensure the business was financially viable and could meet the demands of the challenging economic and market conditions in South Africa’s airline industry.
Phakamile Hlubi-Majola said in a statement that the union was not convinced that there was a genuine need to retrench because the company had contradicted itself.
