Akasa Air, a new entrant in the Indian aviation industry, has set a new benchmark in the airline industry by prioritizing the comfort of its employees. It is truly inspiring to see a company placing employee well-being at the forefront of its operations.
The decision to make sneakers a part of the cabin crew uniform is a bold move, and one that has been widely praised on social media. The airline's unique approach to uniform design is commendable, and it is refreshing to see a company breaking away from traditional practices to prioritize employee comfort and practicality.
Diksha Mishra, a Bengaluru resident, was impressed by Akasa Air's unique approach to uniform design when she noticed the cabin crew wearing sneakers instead of high heels during a recent flight. She praised the airline's decision to prioritize employee comfort and posted it on LinkedIn along with a photograph of an air hostess wearing sneakers.
Her post received positive feedback on social media. Akasa Air thanked her for her post, stating that comfort is one of their core values and essential for providing excellent service. This philosophy is not only commendable but also essential in creating a positive work environment and ensuring employee satisfaction.
It is heartening to see a company prioritize the well-being of its employees, especially in the aviation industry, where the job can be physically demanding. The decision to provide custom-made trousers and jackets using recycled polyester fabric made from marine waste further highlights the airline's commitment to sustainability and innovation.
