KARACHI: Due to a strike by contractual sanitation employees of the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) at Jinnah International Airport Karachi, dustbins were overflowing, and a foul smell emanated from the premises at the airport.
The contractual staff of CAA is protesting for the regularization of their services. Due to the sanitation workers’ strike, garbage is being witnessed at the premises of the Karachi airport, causing problems for passengers.
It may be noted that the CAA contractual staff is also on strike at the Islamabad International Airport.
On the other side, a speaker for the CAA said in a statement that some “mischievous elements were trying to create misunderstanding through misrepresentation.”
The spokesman said that the airport management was in touch with the staff members and that their misunderstandings will be cleared soon.
“Civil Aviation Retainership is ensuring the best facilities to employees through service level agreements,” he added.
He said that some of the morning shift employees expressed their concerns but most of the staff were performing their duties.
As a result of the protest, there were some temporary sanitation problems, but these were soon overcome, he added.
