SIA Engineering senior management takes on more pay cuts

Cuts on senior vice presidents, executive vice president and the CEO rose to 20%- 30%.

SIA Engineering has announced that their senior management will absorb a further pay cut of 5% starting 1 August, an SGX filing revealed.

This is in addition to the pay cuts announced previously and on top of cost management measures implemented in previous months. The pay cuts affecting senior vice presidents, the executive vice president and the CEO will increase from the current 15%-25% to 20%- 30%.

“The global lifting of border controls and travel restrictions has been slower than anticipated, and many parked aircraft are unlikely to return to service soon. In the absence of a material uptick in flight activities across the world in the near term, the pace and extent of recovery for the aerospace maintenance, repair and overhaul business is uncertain,” SIA Engineering said.

For now, they stated that their investments in adopting lean methodology and digitalisation to improve productivity and enable a culture of innovation and continuous process improvement will further strengthen the group’s capabilities and enhance operating efficiencies for the long term.

“We will stay nimble to adjust our response to the evolving situation and maintain adequate liquidity. Notwithstanding the current challenges, we are positioning ourselves for the eventual recovery of the aviation industry as we continue with the next phase of our transformation,” the firm added.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
