100 workers sacked by Aero Contractors

There are indications that about 100 workers outsourced to Aero Contractors by Skyborne Ltd may have been sacked following the airline’s decision to review its relationship with the company. The airline confirmed the development in a statement issued on Friday by its Media Consultant, Simon Tumba.

In the course of reorganising and repositioning its business, Aero Contractors has reviewed its relationship with Skyborne by cutting down some of the services required from the company, the statement said. This will help the company to invest more resources to enhance customer service. For the records, Aero has not sacked any of its staff.

NAN, however, gathered that most of the affected contract workers had spent some years with the airline. A letter to one of the affected workers which was obtained by NAN said the sack was as a result of the ongoing restructuring in the airline.

The letter reads in part, “Dear colleague, in the light of the ongoing restructuring at Aero, we regret to inform you that your services are no longer required and employment with SBL terminated with immediate effect. Please, return all company property to your Manager/Supervisor by 8:00 a.m. on April 28. We regret any inconvenience caused.
