MUMBAI- The All India Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Union (AIAMEU) has formally notified AI Engineering Services Limited (AIESL) of their decision to initiate a strike effective May 5, 2025.

The strike involves AIESL’s Fixed-Term Employment (FTE) staff demanding permanent employment status, better pay, and benefits equal to those of permanent employees at the aircraft maintenance company.

AIESL FTE Staff Strike Notice
The AIAMEU, which represents union members working at various AIESL operational stations across India, submitted a formal notice detailing their grievances and demands.

According to the union’s communication received by Aviation A2Z, AIESL employs a significant number of highly trained, skilled technicians who perform crucial maintenance tasks to ensure fleet safety, yet these professionals are engaged as FTEs under contractual agreements without the security and benefits afforded to permanent employees.
