Rotary wing operator Bristow Helicopters has announced the sack of over 100 pilots and engineers over socio-economic impact of coronavirus pandemic.
The job erasures affected its indigenous and expatriate personnel after engagements with officials of National Association Aircraft Pilots and Engineers to negotiate a fair and equitable redundancy compensation for the affected workers.
Investigations by The Nation revealed the decision may also be connected with the lingering industrial crisis between company and NAAPE, which led the Nigerian Labour Congress and other labour affiliates to shut down operations of the company on Monday. “In addition, the ongoing downturn in the global oil and gas market continues to influence and determine the demand for our services.
