Air India discovers 400 'Ghost employees' including pilots and cabin-crew members

New Delhi: After being notoriously lethargic, another startling revelation about state-owned airline Air India (AI) has sent the Human Resource (HR) department of the Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) in a state of shock. As per a report released by a national daily Indian Express, around 400 employees of AI have been ‘missing’ from duty.
 The report claims that around 50 pilots, 200 cabin crew and the rest belonging to the engineering and other departments have not reported on work, some of them for as long as 7 years. The discovery of the missing employees was made by the HR department last month and notices have been sent pertaining to the absentism.
 Although the absconding employees have not drawn salaries for the time they have been absent, but they have not struck off the rolls either.
