Bank Unions Defer Strike After Talks, Committee to Discuss Saturday Holidays
The United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU) has deferred its planned three-day nationwide strike scheduled for September 28-30 after talks with the Indian Banks' Association (IBA). Both parties agreed to form a high-level committee to discuss the demand for declaring all remaining Saturdays as holidays, aiming for a solution acceptable to all stakeholders, including customers. Discussions will also address the Performance Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for senior officers and other pending issues from March 2024, with the goal of resolving them promptly.
