Mumbai: Observing that employees have no vested right to question the policy of employer to reorganise or hive-off workers, the Bombay High Court has dismissed petitions challenging Air-India’s decision to transfer engineering workers to a subsidiary company of the airline.
“The petitions are devoid of merits and hence are being dismissed,” said Justices Ajay Khanvilkar and A P Bhangale in their 99-page judgement on April 2.
The Air-India and the Union government had taken a policy decision to transfer aircraft and service engineers to a separate company called Air-India Engineering Services Ltd.
