Both public and private banks across the country may be affected by the strike. According to the notification issued by the association, a 6-day strike is planned in December. Let us know which bank is on strike on which date.

December 4: Strikes are planned at Punjab National Bank (PNB), State Bank of India (SBI), and Punjab & Sind Bank.

8 December: There is strike in Union Bank of India and Bank of Maharashtra.
December 11: Private banks will also join the strike.
Please note that banks will remain closed on 9th and 10th December due to weekly holidays – Saturday and Sunday.

What is the reason for the strike: Actually, there is some demand from the bank employees. This includes preventing outsourcing of permanent jobs in the banking sector besides ensuring adequate recruitment of ‘award staff’ in all banks.

AIBEA general secretary CH Venkatachalam had earlier pointed out that outsourcing of jobs by some banks is putting customers’ privacy and their money at risk besides reducing recruitment at the grassroots level. At the same time, some banks are also violating the Industrial Disputes (Amendment) Act.

Due to this strike, banking services are likely to be disrupted across the country. Customers may face challenges in accessing various banking services due to absence of staff in many branches during this period.

Attacks on bankers have increased. Earlier in October, AIBEA general secretary CH Venkatachalam had said in a statement, “The members of the union will go on strike to protest against the targeted harassment of bankers who are active in the union. He had said, “Recently the attacks on such bankers have not only increased, but there is a similarity in all the steps being taken against them. There is a conspiracy in these attacks. Insanity also has some way or the other. So we have to resist, retaliate and counter these attacks at the level of AIBEA.”

Venkatachalam claims that member bankers of AIBEA union have recently been sacked/retrenched from several banks including Sonali Bank, MUFG Bank, Federal Bank and Standard Chartered. He said that more than 3,300 clerk employees have been transferred from one station to another, which is in violation of bilateral agreement and bank-level agreement.

Meanwhile, All India Bank Officers’ Associations (AIBOC) has also accused foreign bank Standard Chartered of violating norms related to human resources . Along with this, while submitting a detailed memorandum, he has also appealed to the CEO of the bank to take appropriate steps in this matter immediately. The union also alleged that the bank was delaying the recognition of Association of Standard Chartered Bank Officers (Kolkata) despite several reminders.
