Close to 3,000 former Malaysia Airlines System (MAS) employees have filed complaints with the Industrial Relations Department on grounds of unjustified dismissal.

Malaysia Airlines System Employees Union (Maseu) secretary-general Abdul Malek Ariff, whose union is representing most of former staff, said the last complaint was filed last Friday, since the workers had 60 days to do so after the termination date which came into effect on Sept 1.
