Cathay Pacific open to staff ideas as it works on restructuring plan

SYDNEY (Reuters): Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd said on Wednesday (Sept 30) it welcomed all employee ideas to get it through the pandemic after pilots pushing to be included in restructuring talks ran a newspaper advertisement to drum up public support.

Cathay this month declined to apply for more government employment subsidies for its main business units, freeing it from the condition to retain jobs tied to the grants and fuelling worries of layoffs.
