A good step and should probably reduce the influence of politically hired employees.

Re: Shifting of PIA Admin & Finance department from Karachi to Islamabad
A good way to reduce costs
Get new offices
Waste money for tranferring Equipment and furniture
Increasing operational risk
Causing havoc among staff (shift to another place) and operational issues
Only to please certain people /region

Worst thing happening for Karachi.Another Ayub Khan in Making for Karachi.
Why don't some head office like Railway or Wapda shift to Karachi, to reduce political influence as well?

Re: Shifting of PIA Admin & Finance department from Karachi to Islamabad
It is an exercise in futility devoid of any logic? Most of the employees will only move singularly because relocating family involves readmission of children in education institutions and plethora of other issues. Employees will be hard pressed to support two setups with existing salary with additional expenses of regular commute between Islamabad and Karachi for family reunion or emergencies. If the management is under false impression that this step will expedite downsizing than let them know this is not going to happen. Under prevailing employment scenario in the country no one will take the risk of quitting PIA job. Dissatisfied employees will only deliver dissatisfactory service!

Re: Shifting of PIA Admin & Finance department from Karachi to Islamabad
Relocation is a standard phenomena in any sector private or public. And moreover, people who have been in a job for too long with an impression that it is an 'easy sarkari job in hometown' is far more detrimental to performance than moving them. This is the reason private corporate world now a days shuffles employees at average after three years. An employee sitting in a role for more than 8-10 years with impression nothing will happen to him/her is far more dangerous than an employee who has been moved around.Sadiq wrote: ↑Sun May 05, 2019 10:48 am It is an exercise in futility devoid of any logic?

Keeping same logic for WAPDA, Pakistan Railway, NHA and many other Headquarters that needs to move out from Lahore / Islamabad to Karachi.
