Balancing financial success across agencies reinforces unity; thus, every employee should enjoy harmony within incentive distribution. #5DayWeekandFairPLI#AIBOC@PMOIndia https://t.co/MfWje2H9oV
365 days vs 15 days.
These are not merely numbers on a policy document. They represent a very real difference in how employees may be valued and rewarded.
If banking is a team effort, then the incentive system must strengthen that team—not create a divide within it.
We believe senior officers deserve recognition for performance. But the contribution of every employee—from the person managing the counter to the person ensuring the branch functions smoothly—must also be recognised fairly.
That is why we stand for:
✔ Equitable PLI
✔ 5-Day Banking
✔ Dignity for every employee
✔ A stronger and more motivated banking workforce

The MOU signed in December 2023 is clear; we must not allow silence to incapacitate fair agreements on banking work hours. #5DayWeekandFairPLI#AIBOC@PMOIndia
India’s Bank employees seek two things rooted in fairness and dignity at work.
#5DayWeekandFairPLI
The demand for a 5 Day Work Week in banks is not new. It already stands agreed upon in the Bipartite Settlement of March 2024. What remains is its long-pending implementation.
At the same time, the unilateral and discriminatory PLI system must be abolished and replaced with a fair, transparent and inclusive framework for all employees, recognising the collective effort behind every institution’s performance.
Hardworking bank employees are not asking for privilege. They are asking for implementation of an agreement and equality in reward.
A motivated banking workforce strengthens Indian banking and the nation.
@PMOIndia
When the entire world is moving towards 4 days a week, only we are deprived of the much needed 5 days banking… RBI, state government, insurance sector is having 5 days a week.. It’s high time that bankers should also be given 5 days a week.
#Implement5DayBanking
A better banking experience starts with a sustainable workweek. With acute staff shortages and mounting stress, 5-day banking is about public service and employee well-being, not a privilege.
UFBU has been pressing since 2015; IBA has already recommended it to the Government (MoU 07-12-2023), and the 12th Bipartite/9th Joint Note (08-03-2024) records the Saturday holiday clause, pending approvals/clearances.
Honour what’s on record. Approve all Saturdays off.

A rested workforce serves the public better. With staff shortages and rising stress, 5-day banking is a service-quality issue, not a “perk.” UFBU has pursued this since 2015; IBA has recommended it to the Government (MoU 07-12-2023), and it’s included in the 12th Bipartite/9th Joint Note (08-03-2024), pending clearances.
Let’s finish what’s already agreed.
