| Summary |
This case study is about human resource management issues at Air India (AI) after its merger. AI was the merged body of Air India Limited (AIL) and Indian Airlines Limited (IAL). The merger was approved in 2007 and the merged body was called the National Aviation Company of India Limited (NACIL). The case discusses the various HR issues and other reasons which led AI into a crisis. The merger was initiated with the aim of making profits and gaining high market share for the airline. But because of post merger HR issues like compensation, career progression, and salary payment, promotion issues, and employee strikes, the merger did not yield the intended objectives. Experts said that poor management practices and improper planning had pushed the merged entity into trouble. The case discusses in detail the major causes for the AI merger failure, and some of the practices undertaken by the management to make the merger a success. AI in addition to HR issues was also saddled with huge financial debts. These two issues gave raise to speculations whether AI would survive and achieve the objectives of the merger |
