Compulsory leave without pay for some AI staffers

New Delhi:  16.07.2020

Cash-strapped Air India has decided to send “redundant” employees among its 13,000-strong permanent workforce on compulsory leave without pay (LWP) for six months or two years, extendable up to five years. Departmental heads and regional directors have been instructed to make their recommendations by August 15, based on an assessment of each individual in terms of suitability for the assigned role, competence, performance and health.

Employees voluntarily seeking to go on leave without pay will require approval on a case-by-case basis, “subject to the requirements of the company”. The Air India CMD will take a call on the lists compiled by the departmental heads and regional directors.

“No employee availing of the scheme will be permitted to take up jobs in government other public sector undertakings…. Employees taking up employment after availing LWP under the scheme or at a later date, in other airlines and allied services or in any organisation with which the company has dealings, should seek prior permission from the company...’’ the order said.
