IndiGo Welcomes All-Women Maintenance Technicians
IndiGo, an airline, has hired its first group of 33 all-women maintenance technicians, which is a big step toward having more women in technical jobs.
This matches the airline's commitment to hiring a diverse group of people.
These women will help keep IndiGo's fleet of over 400 planes flying safely.
IndiGo has a high percentage of women employees and pilots.
The new technicians recently finished a training program to prepare them for their roles.
Globally, few women work in aircraft maintenance.
This new initiative is expected to lead to more women taking on technical jobs and leadership positions.
IndiGo onboarded its first all-women batch of 33 maintenance technicians.
The initiative is part of IndiGo's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) journey.
The airline's Engineering department ensures safety, quality, and reliability across its fleet.
IndiGo's workforce has over 44.8% women employees.
Globally, women are under-represented in aviation's technical roles.
