Adani to absorb staff, offer new job terms two years after JKIA takeover

All Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) employees will continue working under their current terms should India’s Adani Airport Holdings win its bid to run Kenya’s largest airport for 30 years, signalling a softened position after the workers’ standoff.

Adani’s revised key concession terms to KAA, in which it intends to spend $1.85 billion (Sh238 billion) to upgrade and expand Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), shows the firm has now committed to absorb all the current workforce for two years before offering them new contracts.
