NATIONAL NEWS - The South African Airways (SAA) CEO Vuyani Jarana has refuted reports that the national carrier is preparing to cut at least one thousand jobs.
The Sunday Times reported yesterday that the planned retrenchments were part of a turnaround strategy.
But Jarana says this is not true.
“There’s no such thing, there’s no board resolution, there have been no submissions. No thousand jobs on the line, and so if there were jobs on the line, myself and Numsa would be sitting down to discuss this.”
Numsa represents some workers at the embattled airline.
