News Flash: The All India Bank Employees' Association (AIBEA) has declared a series of strikes across various banks in India, scheduled from December 2023 to January 2024.
This decisive action, announced on November 15, 2023, addresses critical issues like inadequate recruitment, the outsourcing of permanent jobs, and violations of bipartite settlement provisions. The strike will unfold in phases, targeting different banks and regions, culminating in a two-day all-India strike on January 19th and 20th, 2024. AIBEA's move comes after noting a substantial reduction in clerical and sub staff recruitment, leading to increased workloads and deteriorating customer service. This sweeping strike is set to impact banking operations nationwide, signaling a significant pushback against current employment practices in the banking sector.
