Employees in band B and A — the lowermost bands — will not be affected by the scheme.
IndiGo on June 1 said senior employees will have to go on compulsory leave without pay (LWP) for up to four days per month till September as passenger traffic has reduced due to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. “The second wave has been difficult for all of us and has also resulted in reduction in passenger loads. As a result our commercial schedule had to be curtailed accordingly,” Ashim Mittra, senior vice president, flight operations, IndiGo, said in an email to pilots of the airline. Due to the reduced capacity, the airline will have to institute an LWP programme for all employees which would range from 1.5 to 4 days depending on the employee group, he noted.More Related News
