Mumbai: Jet Airways, facing some headwinds on the labour front, has given a wage hike of up to Rs 18,000 to its around 7,500 ground staff, sources said on Wednesday.
The decision comes amidst reports of its pilots meeting in Delhi on Friday to discuss wage hike and long-pending arrear issues with the management.
The Naresh Goyal-promoted airline, which is on the verge of closing a stake sale deal with Etihad, has already signed a tripartite agreement with one of its employees unions, the All India Jet Airways Officers Association, they said.
