Qantas senior management met, or partially met, all STIP measures, except for customers. On that measure, there was “no achievement against targets”.It’s worth noting that pre-pandemic in the 2019 annual report, Qantas’ STIP was weighted 50 per cent towards profits, 15 per cent each to customer and safety, and 10 per cent each to domestic market position, and growth or transformation.

Qantas called it a “new” role.
