MIAA General Manager Ed Monreal today met with MIAA’s key officers in preparation for tomorrow’s reversion to Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ).
Pursuant to existing IATF Omnibus Guidelines on community quarantine, MIAA will adopt a 50% workforce deployment in back office work.
However, employees performing frontline duties are not included in this directive.
These are those assigned in flight operations, terminal monitoring, facilities management and maintenance, security, safety and emergency services.
The airport chief further stressed that personnel of janitorial companies that have contracts with MIAA should be on full complement despite the MECQ.
Security guards contracted by MIAA shall likewise remain on full deployment.
To ensure continuous work, MIAA provides shuttle buses for use of airport workers plying routes covering Manila, Quezon City and Cavite.
They are also provided free meals and hazard pay equivalent to P500 per day as maybe directed by the competent authority.
In a meeting with the airlines, GM Monreal called on local air carriers to properly inform their passengers about rebooking instructions in view of the temporary suspension of domestic flights in and out of Manila under MECQ. (MIAA)
