Mumbai: Citing ambiguity in service rules, around 5,000 Air India employees have yet to accept their transfer orders to the newly-created subsidiary Air India Engineering Services (AIESL), which became functional from last Friday, sources said.
"The management had issued transfer orders to around 5,000 employees belonging to engineering services. However, they have yet to accept these orders, citing lack of clarity on service rules," Air India sources told PTI here.
The situation has become more challenging for the airline management as even the 1,000 non-technical staff, who were told to join AIES on deputation from February 1, have also not accepted the orders citing similar reasons, they said.
