Bonza staff notified of employment termination

Another nail has been driven into the Bonza coffin this morning as staff were notified of the termination of their employment following two months without pay.

Bonza has been on the ropes after entering voluntary administration at the beginning of last month.

UPDATE: Bonza hole deepens as administrators investigate financial affairs

Employees were called to a virtual ‘town hall’ meeting at 10am this morning where the company immediately terminated a total of 323 employees.

Last Friday was the deadline for final offers to buy the embattled carrier, none were received, however administrators Hall Chadwick say it’s not yet out of the question.

Bonza remains in voluntary administration and as a result, employees are not entitled to the governments Fair Entitlements Guarantee for unpaid wages.
