NEW DELHI: The All India Bank Officers’ Confederation (AIBOC) has threatened to go on a two-day nationwide strike from 24 to 25 February 2025.The confederation demanded a five-day workweek, sufficient recruitment across all cadres, and the resolution of various long-pending issues.In a statement released on Thursday, AIBOC criticised recent directives from the department of financial services (DFS), claiming they compromise job security and sow division among employees. The union demanded the immediate withdrawal of these guidelines related to performance reviews and performance-linked incentives (PLI).The union also called for the urgent appointment of workmen and officer directors in public sector banks (PSBs) and a resolution of residual matters with the Indian Banks’ Association (IBA).AIBOC accused the DFS of micromanaging PSBs in policy matters, undermining the autonomy of their respective boards. The union warned that further agitation programmes will begin after serving the strike notice this month, with the possibility of stronger actions in case their demands are not addressed.
