Administrators for Rex to axe another 73 jobs at troubled regional airline

Rex’s administrators are proposing to make 73 of 261 workers employed at its now-defunct capital city business redundant, but the decision as to which employees will face redundancy has yet to be made and is subject to a consultation process with the administrators. The additional redundancies will see Rex's total employee headcount reduced to about 1,200 staff — about the same number of workers the business had prior to its failed expansion to capital city services and the COVID-19 pandemic.
