Air India Express Defers Inquiry Against Cabin Crew Amid Conciliation Proceedings

Air India Express has deferred the inquiry process against 200 cabin crew members who reported sick amid significant operational disruptions in May. This decision, recommended by the Central Labour Commissioner, is part of ongoing conciliation proceedings initiated by the Air India Express Employees Union under the Industrial Disputes Act.

In a significant move, Air India Express decided to defer the inquiry process against nearly 200 cabin crew members accused of reporting sick during operational disruptions in May, sources revealed on Tuesday.

The decision emerged from a meeting convened by the Central Labour Commissioner in the capital, forming part of ongoing conciliation proceedings.

Representatives of the Air India Express Employees Union (AIXEU) argued for the withdrawal of charge sheets issued in June, a request supported by the conciliation officer. Subsequently, the airline's management agreed to defer the inquiry related to these charge sheets.
