New Delhi: A committee headed by Krishna Mohan Sahni, former secretary in the Ministry of Labour, has submitted its final report to Air India, recommending modalities to drastically cut the number of recognised unions in the airline. The recommendation was aimed at facilitating efficient decision-making during negotiations between the management and union representatives.
A senior Air India executive said, “A four-member committee headed by Krishna Mohan Sahni has submitted its report. The committee members spoke to a cross-section of people and took into account the views of all factions. They have recommended norms for recognising and synergising operations between unions associated with erstwhile Air India and Indian Airlines.”
Currently, Air India has 15 recognised and unrecognised unions. The committee, mandated to determine the norms, processes and modalities for recognition of unions associated with Air India, Air India Engineering Services Ltd (AIESL) and Air India Air Transport Services Ltd (AIATSL), held 31 meetings with about 660 employees.
