NEW DELHI : The committee created to address employee issues at Air India has suggested that permanent staff have to be given job security till retirement, placing a human resource hurdle before potential bidders for the national carrier.
The committee also suggested rules for leave encashment, gratuity, staff housing, reservation for promotion and recruitment, arrears and medical benefits and a revision in pay scale before the divestment process is completed. The panel was constituted in January to look into HR issues in view of the proposed divestment of Air India.
Mint has reviewed a copy of the committee’s report.
