After 3 decades @aibea current leaders finally got it — talks are formality. We knew years ago 😁😉
Tickets booked for hometown. Finally Some family time for bankers posted far away. 11–14 & 26–30.
Don’t come with deferred notice “positive / resolved soon”.
Don’t stop till equal PLI signed, 5-day banking notified & those irresponsible DFS Joint/Under Secretaries transferred.

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.

#WATCH | Delhi: On the All India Bank Employees' Association's strikes, General Secretary, AIBEA, CH Venkatachalam says, "...for the past 10 years in banks, the second and fourth Saturdays have been holidays as per our demand, while on the first and third Saturdays, we work full days. We have been asking to declare all Saturdays as holidays. For that, we have agreed to work 40 minutes more from Monday to Friday to extend customer service...but for two years, this has been agreed to by the Indian Banks' Association and signed in the settlement, then referred to the government. However, the government has been keeping it pending... Second, in the banks, we have a bilateral system where we sign settlements on service conditions bilaterally. We also have a system to provide performance-based incentives for each bank. Depending on the profit, each bank gives an incentive of 5, 10, or 15 days, which is uniform from the sweeper to the general manager. Now, the government has unilaterally interfered...we are asking them to discuss the matter with the union and resolve it, but the government remains adamant. On these two issues, we have given a call for a one-day strike on September 11, followed by a three-day strike on September 28, 29, and 30. If the issue is still not resolved, there will be a continuous indefinite strike starting from October 26..."
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
PLI paid to bank executives despite Delhi High Court proceedings ?
The Delhi High Court, in W.P.(C) 4107/2026, did NOT grant an interim stay on 01.04.2026.
But the Court expressly recorded:
“The implementation of the PLI Scheme will be subject to further orders in the present proceedings.”
Now, if banks have already credited PLI under the disputed scheme to Scale IV–VII executives, a very simple question arises:
Were the payments made after obtaining the subsequent orders of the Hon’ble Court ?
If no then who authorised implementation while the matter was sub judice and expressly made subject to further orders ?
Whether accountability will be fixed for contempt ?

@aiboc_in The DFS directive on PLI undermines years of collective bargaining and needs immediate revision with respect to agreed standards. #5DayWeekandFairPLI#AIBOC@PMOIndia
Collective bargaining was designed for a reason; let's not erode efforts to align PLI benefits for each bank employee. #5DayWeekandFairPLI#AIBOC@PMOIndia https://t.co/pWtEiVvp8G
A scheme that divides officers between performers and non-performers can only mean unrest among a harmonious banking family.
We demand fair, transperant, equal and non-discriminatory "Performance Linked Incentive" scheme agreed in Joint note #5DayWeekandFairPLI#AIBOC@PMOIndia
@nilesh_pawar15 The commitment for a 5-day workweek in banking has been pending for far too long.
This is about dignity, health, and sustainable performance.
Honour it. Notify it. Implement it.
#5DayWeekandFairPLI#FBOIOA#AIBOC
The 5-Day Work Week, agreed in the March 2024 Bipartite Settlement, must be implemented without further delay.
An agreement must be honoured. A reward system must be fair.
PLI too must be fair, transparent and inclusive, recognising that every achievement of our banks is built on collective effort.
No privilege. No favour. Just fairness, implementation and dignity at work.
Implement #5DayWeekandFairPLI @PMOIndia
