【冠状病毒19】进一步缩减开销 新航允机舱人员提前解约

新加坡航空为了进一步削减开销,允许机舱人员提早解约或退休。 据《亚洲新闻台》报导,新加坡航空昨日(8月12日)发出公告,宣布在冠状病毒19疫情影响下,航空业复苏需要更长的时间,旗下的机舱人员可以申请自愿提早结束服务的计划。 当局表示,公司在任何涉及职员的措施上,都会和工会保持密切合作。 据悉,有关提前解约计划将允许新加坡航空和胜安航空(SilkAir)旗下的机舱人员,于8月31日前提出申请。然而,这计划只开放给试用期的机舱人员申请,且会获得适当补偿,而正在培训中的职员则无法申请。 申请者将会在9月中得知消息,并且获得公司依据个人合约所提供的适当补偿。 本月还在履行合约的机舱人员也能申请提早解约,申请获准后即能免去缴付解约金。除此之外,相关机舱人员还能获得公司依据薪金所给出的补偿,即试用期职员将获得一个月的薪金,而正式员工将获得三个月薪金补偿。 而正在履行最后一年合约的机舱人员,则可以选择提早解约,公司将依据职位和合约给出赔偿金,金额介于4000元至两万元之间。 若有任何额外措施,新航将会在适当的时候做出公布。 日前,为了帮助公司渡过难关,新航公司集团将近20巴仙的员工领无薪假。此外,该集团也将安排员工进行短期或兼职工作。
