The TWU has called on Qantas to “urgently investigate” safety and training standards in its supply chain following the death of a Qantas Freight ground worker on Father’s Day. We’ve now seen an aviation worker killed just doing their job, and it should never have come to this,” he said. == ==“Qantas has flooded its supply chain with labour hire workers who are not sufficiently trained, who are under-staffed and whose safety concerns are ignored. “Further, it is unclear as to why Qantas continues to use such a large number of labour hire workers when it already has three direct hire workforces at its disposal. Many workers at QGS, the largest direct hire Qantas workforce, are often not provided with more than 25 hours work when labour hire workers are provided with 38 hours work.
