Episode description
Dunn Street founder and Community Organiser Stephen Donnelly was joined by the National Secretary of the Transport Workers Union, Michael Kaine.
Qantas is regarded as a cultural icon and for many a source of national pride. However, under the leadership of Alan Joyce, the red roo’s reputation has been tarnished with cuts to staff, outsourcing to labour hire, all the while taking pandemic payments and dishing out directors bonuses.
On this week’s episode Michael returns to discuss how Qantas’ got to be in this situation, the unchecked power Joyce wields and the impact it’s having on its long term, dedicated workers and loyal customers.
