According to sources, SereneAir, a privately owned Pakistani airline, has promised a compensation hike of up to 44% for low-wage staff.
SereneAir made the announcement today, five years after it was founded. Employees whose incomes above Rs30,000 would receive 15% to 25% raises, according to the airline’s management.
In a tweet, Prime Minister Imran Khan said, “I congratulate Serene Air’s AVM Safdar(R) for responding to my call and announcing a pay increase of 44 percent for low-wage employees and 15-25 percent for other employees.” I urge Pakistan’s top 100 firms, which achieved record profits of Rs.950 billion last year, to raise their employees’ wages as well.”
