South African Airways’ business rescue practitioners have reportedly lost a leave to appeal a Labour Court ruling against their plan to retrench workers.
The Labour Court ruled in May that the BRPs could not start retrenchments at SAA without submitting a business rescue proposal. It was reported that the court stated that its May judgement stands and that the BRPs must consult workers at the airline, issue section 189 notices and submit a business rescue proposal before commencing with retrenchments.
