State-run airline Air India on Friday issued a circular to employees, saying reporting late would lead to salary cuts. The move is said to have been aimed at tightening the screws on cases of indiscipline by employees – seen as a major reason behind flight delays and mounting losses.
The circular, which comes on a directive of the civil aviation ministry, covers all cabin crew, engineers, ground handlers and pilots. Air India has about 13,000 employees, excluding the engineering and ground-handling arms.
