Facing severe cash-crunch, Jet Airways has now suspended the group mediclaim policy of its employees as it is unable to fund it, Jet Airways told its employees in a letter. The policy will lapse on 30 April 2019, following which, the employees are essentially on their own for their medical treatments.
Attributing untoward time that Jet Airways is facing, Rahul Taneja, CPO, said that the current situation is not of Jet’s “own doing” and even though the company wants to do things differently, it is not in a position to do so. Jet Airways employees have also been asked to choose a policy of their own will. Rahul Taneja expressed hope over Jet Airways revival stating that the company has not given up on efforts.
