Azman Air sacks six pilots, others

The management of AZMAN Air Services Limited has sacked no fewer than 10 workers, including six pilots,

on Saturday.

NSL gathered that six pilots, one cabin crew member, and three ground staff had their appointments terminated

after they were said to have complained in a WhatsApp group over the delay in their October salaries.

The letter of termination did not indicate the reason why they were fired, but a source said,

“On the morning of November 6, people started complaining. Workers started giving suggestions, and everyone

wasn’t pleased with the situation because everyone could see that the airline was making money.

We fly the airline and we know roughly how many passengers we carry and how many are on every flight

to break even. After COVID-19, the passenger figure was very good because it was like people were waiting

to start flying.”

Also, the National Association of Aircraft Pilots and Engineers’ President, Abednego Galadinma, said,

“I just got the information, and we are going to respond appropriately. I can confirm to you that something

like that happened and Azman did not follow the due process.”
