In our Circular No.1 issued on 13.01.2020 from Mumbai after the talks with IBA, we had informed all of you about the rigid approach of the IBA on our demands for a fair wage revision settlement. In this background, the meeting of UFBU held at Mumbai on 13.01.2020 came to the unanimous and inescapable conclusion that intensified agitational actions have to be resorted to press our demands for reasonable resolution and satisfactory settlement. Accordingly the following agitational programmes have been decided on the following important demands.
- Wage Revision Settlement at 20% hike on Pay slip components with adequate loading thereof
- 5 Day Banking
- Merger of Special Allowance with Basic Pay
- Scrap New Pension Scheme(NPS)
- Updation of Pension
- Improvement in Family Pension
- Allocation to Staff Welfare Fund based on Operating Profits
- Exemption from Income Tax on retiral benefits without ceiling
- Uniform definition of Business Hours, Lunch Hour, etc. in Branches
- Introduction of Leave Bank
- Defined Working Hours for Officers
- Equal wage for equal work for contract employees/Business Correspondents
