0

In a letter sent by the All India Bank Employees Association to the Indian Bank Association, it has been said to increase the working hours.]

Employees demand that they get 2 days off in a week, for which they are ready to work 30 minutes extra every day (5 days). He says that for this, the time to start work in the morning can be done 30 minutes before. Apart from this, it has also been proposed to increase the customer care service or non-cash transactions by 30 minutes every day.

As per the proposed plan, the bank’s proceedings will start at 9.15 am instead of 9.45 am and will continue till 4.45 am at its scheduled time. Cash transaction timings will be from 9.30-1.30 hrs and then up to 2-3.30 hrs. At the same time, non-cash transactions will happen from 3.30 am to 4.45 pm.

Request has already been rejected

Al India Bank Employees Association (AIBEA) general secretary C.H. Venkatachalam told that he has been demanding a 5-day working week for a long time but the Indian Banks’ Association (IBA) did not approve it. He said that when LIC got its approval last year, this demand was raised once again and this time IBA asked how the less work that was not done on the second Saturday would be compensated. Venkatachalam said, “We have agreed to increase the working hours by 30 minutes every day. We are hopeful that IBA, government and RBI will agree on this.

IBA had proposed to increase the salary

The demand for reduction in working days by the employees’ union was made during the peak of the Kovid-19 epidemic.

Rejecting this demand, the IBA had said that the salary of the employees could be increased by 19 percent. Let us tell you that at present, bank employees have a holiday on the second and fourth Saturdays every month.

If the demand of the employees is accepted, then they will have to work for 7.30 hours a day in the bank. In this way customers will also get half an hour extra time to complete their work. However, it can be difficult for those who used to complete their work on Saturday.
