SpiceJet employees on strike at Delhi airport to demand fair wages
Sources said a section of SpiceJet airline employees went on strike at the Delhi airport on Friday morning over issues related to low wages. When asked about the matter, a SpiceJet spokesperson clarified that the carrier’s flight operations at the Delhi airport are functioning normally.
“A section of employees working at Delhi airport and working on some issues have met senior officials and the matter is being resolved,” the spokesperson said.
Sources said the employees who went on strike discussed issues like low wages and its disbursement with the management.
SpiceJet has been paying lower wages to a large number of employees since 2020 as its finances have been hit due to travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Other airlines in India have also taken pay cuts from 2020 onwards for the same reason.
