Such developments are increasing concerns about how Pakistani workers are treated in other countries.
Why Etihad Airways Fired 15 Pakistanis Suddenly?
The sudden firing of 15 Pakistani employees by Etihad Airways Union has raised questions about the reasons behind this decision. The HR department did not provide official employee notifications according to sources who spoke to CNN-News18. The workers received their termination notification at an immigration office which required them to depart the United Arab Emirates within two days. The group included experienced workers, with one person having worked at the airline for nearly 20 years. The sudden deadline required them to manage their finances and travel and family obligations within a brief time period.
The Gulf Pakistani community faces increasing anxiety from this urgent situation because Gulf workers depend on their employment to support their families.
