According to Air India, by November, the salary of all employees will reach the pre-Covid level. Earlier, Indigo has also made a similar announcement.
There is big news of relief for the employees of Air India. From September 1, it has been decided to gradually withdraw the cuts made during the epidemic in the salaries of the employees. That is, from next month, Air India employees will start getting their salary higher than the current level and will soon reach the level before Kovid. Along with this, the airline is also considering reinstating some other allowances of the employees. The aviation sector was the worst hit by Kovid. In order to reduce the expenses, the airlines had cut the salary of their employees. However, with the arrival of recovery, gradually the deduction in salary is being withdrawn.
What is the decision of the airline
Air India has told its employees that with the end of the impact of the epidemic, the conditions are improving and performance is also improving. In such a situation, the salary has been reviewed and the old level salary will be implemented in a sequential manner. The airline has said that from September 1, there will be a 6 percent restoration in the salary. At the same time, the restoration of the remaining 6 percent will be applicable from November 1. Earlier, IndiGo had also announced that it will raise the salary of its employees to the pre-Covid level from November. IndiGo in August withdrew 8 per cent of the salary cut. At the same time, there is talk of withdrawing the rest in November.
Efforts to get business back on track
Air India is trying to get the business back on track fast with recovery. Air India has started operating 24 additional domestic flights from August 20. According to the airline, out of these additional 24 flights, two will be from Delhi to Mumbai, Bengaluru and Ahmedabad and from Mumbai to Chennai and Hyderabad. Apart from this, new flights will be started on Mumbai-Bengaluru and Ahmedabad-Pune routes. Speaking on the occasion, Air India Managing Director and CEO Campbell Wilson said that the airline has been working closely with its partners for the last six months to bring the aircraft back into service and we are glad that this effort is showing fruitful results. Huh.
