According to reports, Air India has established a new organizational structure for its non-flying employees, who have been awarded new designations and have had their work levels and functions restructured.
It was decided to simplify the positions in order to make them more market-competitive and productivity-oriented. Flying staff, including pilots and cabin crew, were placed in a similar framework in April of this year.
The new framework is part of the company’s plan to alter the previous ad hoc policies. The structural modifications are intended to centre Air India’s operations on performance and productivity.
Around 30% of Air India’s overall workforce (15,000) are new personnel who have been appointed during the last eighteen months. Air India increased their workforce by around 5,000 people. This comprised 500 new pilots and 3200 additional cabin crew members. The airline is now hiring for non-flying professions such as operations, HR, finance, ground handling, and so on.
