A meeting between the South African Transport Allied Workers Union (Satawu) and South African Airways (SAA) over retrenchments has failed to reach a resolution, the union said yesterday. National aviation coordinator Kenneth Monanna said the two parties met on Tuesday under the supervision of a Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) facilitator, following notices issued by the airline of retrenchments. He said the meeting failed to make any progress because management had not made all the information available. Another meeting will be held on Friday. - Sapa
