NEW DELHI: Raising salaries is a difficult and thorny issue but IndiGo will constantly review and adjust wages based on its profitability and the competitive environment, the airline’s CEO Ronjoy Dutta said on Friday.
IndiGo had on Monday suspended a few pilots who were planning to organise a strike on Tuesday to protest against the pay cuts that were implemented during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic.
In a communique to employees on Friday, Dutta said the issue of salaries is on everyone’s mind.
?”It is a difficult and thorny issue but I think the underlying imperatives are to consider the wage structure in competitive industries, to take into account the profitability of the company, to empathize with employees trying to earn a living wage in an inflationary environment and above all to consider the contributions made by employees every single day to the success of this company,” he noted.
