Description
SAS Norway, the country's largest airline, is to cut 121 jobs. The airline is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) Group and currently employs around 3500 people. SAS Norway's management reached in November an agreement with the labour union for the cabin crew to offer redundancy payments for cabin crew workers. The 3. of December the company announced that they withdrew this offer, and rather dissmiss 121 workers. The labour union called the dissmissals a breach of their agreement.
