Numsa, along with Solidarity and the Comair Pilots’ Association, met with the company’s CEO and business rescue practitioners (BRPs) for an update on the process to secure funding for the airline to resume operations.
JOHANNESBURG - Metalworkers union Numsa on Tuesday said that it was going to begin talks with the Department of Labour to try and secure an income for workers at cash-strapped Comair after the airline’s management could not commit to paying salaries at the end of this month.
Numsa’s Sandie Xheke said: “We are going to seek legal counsel as to how best to move with this. So far we don't have a legal opinion on the matter, but in terms of engaging them they have indicated very clearly they don't want specific help from the employees or stakeholders."
