The United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU), which claims to represent more than 90% of the banking workforce, has announced a series of strikes over unresolved issues related to the five-day banking week and the government's revised Performance Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme.

United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU) calls for bank strikes on September 11, followed by a three-day strike from September 28 to 30, and an indefinite strike beginning October 26, 2026.
The bank strikes have been called for the implementation of the five-day banking week, as agreed in the Settlement/Joint Note signed on March 8, 2024, the withdrawal of the government's Performance Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, the modification of the incentive scheme through bilateral talks, and the resolution of pending residual issues
A bank is one institution, but its success is built by thousands of people working as one team.
The employee serving a customer, the officer processing a loan, the staff member handling operations, the person managing recovery and the employee ensuring that the branch functions smoothly—all contribute to the same organisational success.
So the question is simple:
Should a reward system recognise only individual hierarchy, or should it also recognise collective contribution?
A PLI framework must encourage performance without creating an unreasonable sense of disparity among employees. Every cadre contributes to the business, and every contribution deserves fair and equitable recognition.
The same principle applies to working conditions.
5-Day Banking is a progressive reform whose time has come. It can support employee well-being, work-life balance and productivity while banking services continue through digital channels and appropriate customer-service arrangements.
The banking workforce has contributed immensely to India’s economic growth.
Now, it is time to invest in the workforce too.

Fairness in PLI.
Progress through 5-Day Banking.
Dignity for every banker.

This movement is not against an individual.
Not against an institution.
Not against performance.
Not against reform.
It is a movement FOR PRINCIPLES.
🏦 5-Day Banking — because an agreement must be honoured.
⚖️ Fair PLI — because a reward system must motivate, not discriminate.
🤝 Residual Issues — because legitimate demands cannot remain pending indefinitely.
📜 Bilateralism — because negotiated settlements must retain their sanctity.
✊ Unity — because employees and officers must never be divided by cadre, scale, designation or Bank.
Bankers have been partners in India’s transformation—from financial inclusion to one of the world’s largest digital-payment ecosystems.
We seek no privilege.
We seek implementation of what was agreed.
Fairness in what is rewarded.
Resolution of what remains pending.
Dignity in how bankers are treated.
An agreement must be honoured.
A reward system must be fair.
A workforce must be respected.
And our UNITY must never be divided.
