Are Gate Agents Comped for On-Time Performance?
I have heard that airline gate agent's are partially compensated based on their departure on-time stats. Is this fairly common throughout the industry?
|
Sure doesn't happen at my airline.

What has happened from time-to-time is that airlines have offered employees cash rewards when the airline, as a whole, met certain on-time goals.
See, e.g., http://newsroom.unitedcontinentalhol...s-with-Bonuses |
On a day-by-day basis, no.

They get to keep their job.
