Jet Airways crisis: EPFO issues notice to Jet for not remitting employee dues
New Delhi: Grounded Jet Airways’ troubles seem to be mounting each passing day. The Employee’s Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has now served a show-cause notice to the airline for not remitting provident fund and other allied dues in various employee accounts.
In a letter to the Jet Airways Managing Director, the EPFO regional office in Mumbai has said it will initiate an enquiry to assess the total dues and also file a case with the police for non-payment of the employees’ share of provident fund.
“It is once again advised to abide by the statutory requirement of the Act & Scheme and report compliance to undersigned to avoid above unpleasant action against Establishment and responsible persons,” EPFO assistant PF Commissioner Dilip K. Rathod has written to Jet Airways.
