Air India toughens stand as talks with unions fail
The employees are on a three-day hunger strike to protest salary delays.

New Delhi: Air India chairman and managing director Arvind Jadhav has reportedly issued an ultimatum for the employees, who are on a three-day hunger strike to protest the delay in salaries.

Jadhav has reportedly threatened the employees to hand over the airlines to the Board of Industrial Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) if the employees refuse a cut in performance-linked incentives.

On August 20 the management had announced that it would cut the performance-linked incentives of the employees by 30 to 50 per cent.

Angry over the delay in payment of their salaries, over 20,000 members of Air India employees’ unions went on a three-day hunger strike starting from Tuesday.

The talks that started on Tuesday evening continued till Wednesday morning ended without any solution, sources said.

The employees threatened they would again go on a strike on August 31 if their negotiations with the management fail.

What's your reaction?
