I-Delta Air Lines ihlela kabusha amayunifomu ngemuva kwecala elingahleliwe

I-MIAMI-Delta Air Lines izoklama kabusha iyunifomu yayo ngemuva kokuba abasebenzi befake icala bekhononda ngokungezwani komzimba nezingubo ezintsha ezinsomi, kanti izinkulungwane zabasebenzi bezindiza kanye nama-ejenti esevisi yamakhasimende bakhethe ukugqoka izingubo zabo emsebenzini.
Ngonyaka nesigamu odlule, i-Delta Air Lines ese-Atlanta yachitha izigidi zamaRandi ukwethula iyunifomu entsha yombala ethi “Passport Plum” eklanywe nguZac Posen. Kodwa kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, abantu bebelokhu bekhononda ngokuqubuka, ukusabela kwesikhumba, nezinye izimpawu. Icala lithi lezi zimpawu zibangelwa amakhemikhali asetshenziselwa ukwenza izingubo ezingangeni manzi, ezilwa nemibimbi kanye nokungcolisa, ezilwa nokungami kanye nezelula kakhulu.
I-Delta Air Lines inabasebenzi bezindiza ababalelwa ku-25,000 kanye nama-ejenti esevisi yamakhasimende esikhumulweni sezindiza angu-12,000. U-Ekrem Dimbiloglu, umqondisi weyunifomu e-Delta Air Lines, uthe inani labasebenzi abakhethe ukugqoka izingubo zabo ezimnyama nezimhlophe esikhundleni seyunifomu “likhuphuke laya ezinkulungwaneni.”
Ngasekupheleni kukaNovemba, i-Delta Air Lines yenza lula inqubo yokuvumela abasebenzi ukuthi bagqoke izingubo ezimnyama nezimhlophe. Abasebenzi akudingeki babike izinqubo zokulimala emsebenzini ngomphathi wezimangalo zenkampani yezindiza, vele wazise inkampani ukuthi bafuna ukushintsha izingubo.
“Sikholelwa ukuthi iyunifomu iphephile, kodwa kusobala ukuthi kukhona iqembu labantu abangaphephile,” kusho uDimbiloglu. “Akwamukeleki ukuthi abanye abasebenzi bagqoke izingubo zabo ezimnyama nezimhlophe kanti elinye iqembu labasebenzi ligqoke iyunifomu.”
Umgomo weDelta ukuguqula iyunifomu yayo ngoDisemba 2021, okuzobiza izigidi zamaRandi. “Lokhu akuwona umzamo oshibhile,” kusho uDimbiloglu, “kodwa ukulungiselela abasebenzi.”
Phakathi nalesi sikhathi, i-Delta Air Lines inethemba lokushintsha izingubo ezimnyama nezimhlophe zabanye abasebenzi ngokuhlinzeka ngezingubo ezihlukile. Lokhu kuhlanganisa ukuvumela laba basebenzi bezindiza ukuthi bagqoke izingubo ezenziwe ngezinto ezahlukene, ezigqokwa ngabasebenzi bezindiza kuphela, noma amahembe amhlophe kakotini. Le nkampani izophinde ikhiqize izambatho zabasebenzi bezindiza ezimpunga zabesifazane - umbala ofanayo nowesilisa - ngaphandle kokwelashwa ngamakhemikhali.
Ukuguqulwa okuhlangene akusebenzi kubathwali bemithwalo baseDelta kanye nabanye abasebenzi abasebenza e-tarmac. UDimbiloglu uthe labo basebenzi “abasezingeni eliphansi” nabo baneyunifomu entsha, kodwa ngezindwangu ezahlukene kanye nokuthunga, “azikho izinkinga ezinkulu.”
Abasebenzi beDelta Air Lines bafake amacala amaningi ngokumelene nomkhiqizi weyunifomu iLands' End. Abamangali abafuna isimo secala lesigaba bathi izithasiselo zamakhemikhali kanye nokuqeda kubangele ukusabela.
Izisebenzi zezindiza zeDelta Air Lines kanye nama-ejenti esevisi yamakhasimende abazange bajoyine inyunyana, kodwa inyunyana yenhlangano yabasebenzi bezindiza yagcizelela isikhalazo esihlangene lapho iqala umkhankaso wokusebenzisa abasebenzi bezindiza be-United Airlines. Inyunyana yathi ngoDisemba izohlola iyunifomu.
Inyunyana ithe abanye abasebenzi bezindiza abathintekile yilolu daba “balahlekelwe yimali yabo futhi babhekene nezindleko zezokwelapha ezikhulayo”.
Nakuba inkampani yezindiza ichithe iminyaka emithathu ithuthukisa uchungechunge olusha lweyunifomu, oluhlanganisa ukuhlolwa kwe-allergen, ukulungiswa ngaphambi kokuqala kwayo, kanye nokuthuthukiswa kweyunifomu ehlukile ngezindwangu zemvelo, izinkinga zokucasuka kwesikhumba kanye nezinye izindlela zokusabela zaqhubeka nokuvela.
UDimbiloglu uthe iDelta manje inodokotela besikhumba, odokotela be-allergy kanye nodokotela be-toxicologist abangochwepheshe be-chemistry yezindwangu ukusiza ekukhetheni nasekuhloleni izindwangu.
I-Delta Air Lines “iyaqhubeka nokuzethemba ngokugcwele i-Lands' End,” kusho uDimbiloglu, enezela ngokuthi “kuze kube manje, bebengabalingani bethu abahle.” Kodwa-ke, uthe, “Sizolalela abasebenzi bethu.”
Uthe inkampani izokwenza ucwaningo lwabasebenzi futhi izoba nemihlangano yamaqembu okugxila ezweni lonke ukuze icele imibono yabasebenzi mayelana nendlela yokuklama kabusha amayunifomu.
Inyunyana yabasebenzi bezindiza “income isinyathelo esiya endleleni efanele” kodwa yathi “sekudlule izinyanga eziyishumi nesishiyagalombili.” Inyunyana iphinde ituse ukususa iyunifomu ebangele ukusabela ngokushesha okukhulu, futhi itusa ukuthi abasebenzi abanezinkinga zempilo ezitholwe udokotela akufanele bathintwe, kuyilapho begcina amaholo nezinzuzo.
