Transport Workers Union lodges test case in court against Qantas for sacking 2000 staff
The Transport Workers Union has taken legal action against major airline Qantas over its decision to outsource 2000 ground staff workers. Maurice Blackburn Lawyers has filed a test case on behalf of the TWU in the Federal Court in an attempt to overturn the airline’s decision to use third party ground services at 10 Australian airports.
