South Africa's public enterprises department said on Thursday it had offered final and fair voluntary severance packages to employees at struggling national carrier South African Airways (SAA) which would be supported by a social plan including skills development. The government placed South African Airways - which last turned a profit about a decade ago and has lost an estimated R28-billion (about US$1.6-billion) over the past 14 years - under business rescue last December. Efforts to revive its fortunes have been derailed by the Covid-19 pandemic which has largely grounded air travel globally.
