Memo van het management!?
Het is natuurlijk niet waar, want RYR heeft tenslotte een miljard op de bank staan.
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
We have recently been inundated with applications from pilots whose employers (such as Zoom, Futura and XL) have gone bust in the past few weeks. We are also receiving applications from pilots who fear that their airline may go bankrupt shortly.
Since we already have more than treble the applications we require for our possible future needs we have decided to impose a recruitment freeze with immediate effect (from 15th September) until further notice. This freeze will be reviewed again in early January 2009.
Training courses already scheduled for October will be run as planned, however no further recruits will be added to these courses. Delayed aircraft deliveries due to the Boeing strike and a close to zero pilot attrition rate in
recent months means that we are currently overstaffed in our pilot/flight operations department.
We will continue to seek unpaid winter leave applications, particularly at our largest bases, Dublin and Stansted, where our winter base aircraft numbers have been reduced. If we do not receive sufficient applications on/before the end of September, then we will allocate unpaid leave to some Dublin and Stansted based pilots from November onwards.
If you wish to apply for unpaid leave, please contact name witheld before the end of September. As always, even during these extremely difficult times, our focus will be upon maintaining jobs and the security of employment of all our pilots and people.
