Poll: Qantas can’t be trusted
Australians don’t trust Qantas management or their plan to outsource jobs offshore, a survey – reported in The Age newspaper – has found.
The National Essential Report poll shows overwhelming dissatisfaction with the Alan Joyce-led management team at Qantas and their proposed strategy for the airline.
About 67 percent of those surveyed agreed that Qantas workers have legitimate concerns, while just 13 per cent disagree.
The poll was conducted between October 19 and 23, based on 1017 respondents.
However, more than 50 percent thought the union’s industrial action at Qantas is irresponsible and disruptive, with 31 percent thinking it wasn’t.
A Qantas spokeswoman said the polling was a union attempt to damage the airline.
“This is more push polling being used by the unions to deliberately damage the Qantas brand as part of their industrial campaign,” she told AAP.
