The National Union of Metalworkers of SA and the SA Cabin Crew Association, which in coalition are the majority union, want the retrenchment notices that were sent to employees declared unlawful because the plan to rescue the airline has still not been seen by the unions concerned. The court application is the latest in the drawn-out saga of the rescue of SAA, which was placed in business rescue on December 5. Under normal circumstances, a rescue plan must be produced in 30 days, but successive delays have been requested by public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan, who is the shareholder representative on behalf of government.
