AI further advances date of payment of allowances

Mumbai, Oct 23 (PTI) Changing its decision twice in as many days, Air India today announced further advancement of the date of payment of allowances to its 29,000 employees, saying these incentives would be disbursed along with the salaries on November one itself.


The national carrier had earlier notified the deferment of payment of flying allowances and productivity- linked incentives (PLI) by a fortnight.


Following protests by unions, it last night withdrew its decision and said while the salaries would be paid on November one, the allowances and PLI would be disbursed on November four.


Changing its decision on the payment of allowances again today, an airline spokesperson said the salaries, PLI and allowances would be paid together on November one.


"The salaries and other productivity-link incentives' flying allowances of the NACIL employees will now be paid on November one," an Air India spokesperson said here.
