New Delhi: Air India's new pay structure will take at least a year to get implemented, as the airline will require additional government approvals for harmonising wages of the licensed category-employees, which is likely to cause deviation from Department of Public Enterprises (DPE) norms, a senior civil aviation ministry official said.
The government is in the process of harmonising AI's wage structure on the principles laid down in a report submitted by a committee headed by a retired Supreme Court judge, Justice D Dharmadhikari.
"The Dharmadhikari report recommends strict adherence to DPE guidelines but in case of licensed categories (pilots and engineers), it will have to deviate from the norms for state-owned companies as the market-rates for pilots will have to be doled out," a senior civil aviation ministry official said.
Meanwhile, the Dharmadhikari Committee has also recommended setting up a committee of airline-related professionals to ensure implementation of wage parity and level-mapping of employees in a time-bound manner.
