The Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (Nahco Aviance) has cleared the air on the reasons why it undertook its recent restructuring.
The company said, in a statement in Lagos, that the exercise was carried out in order to reposition the company for a more dominant role in the Nigerian aviation industry.
The manager, Corporate Communications & Branding of the Company, Mr Tayo Ajakaye, in the statement, pointed out that although the number of staff asked to go was really small compared to the huge working population of the company, the workers’ unions in the sector were carried along during the entire process.
He said that about 11 managerial staff were affected in the process and recalled that between September 12 and 14, a retreat was held by the senior management of the company, Air Transport Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (ATSSSAN) and the National Union of Air Transport Employees (NUATE) on the board’s decision to reposition Nahco Aviance for emerging opportunities in the sector.
It was at the retreat that it was agreed that the company was top heavy and that there was the need to trim down the managerial staff for the company in order to respond positively to strategic investments being made in the company by its shareholders.
