“The Jet Airways management will decide in a week whether the employees need to work till May 10 (when a potential investor’s name will be announced) or not,” said Kiran Pawaskar, President of All-India Jet Airways’ Officers and Staff Association (AIJAOSA).
Addressing the media after a meeting with CEO Vinay Dube, Chief People Officer Rahul Taneja, and HR head Gopal Krishnan, Pawaskar, who is also an MLC belonging to NCP, said the management had asked the airline’s 22,000 employees to report to work every day.
However, “the company has requested for a week to decide on whether the staff needs to report to work till May 10 or not.” About 250 members of the association protested outside the airline’s headquarters on Thursday.
