Dear Comrades,
The fight for Five-Day Banking must not be seen merely as a struggle for implementation of an agreement that has remained pending for more than 30 months. This is a fight for our existence, our dignity, our families and our fundamental right to a humane working life.
Public Sector Bank employees serve far more customers than our private-sector counterparts. Even with private banks accounting for a substantial share of the banking market, it is overwhelmingly the Public Sector Banks and their employees who carry the burden of Government-sponsored schemes, financial inclusion, social-sector banking and the last-mile delivery of public policy.
We work for institutions owned by the people and for a Government that expects us to reach every citizen. We have never shied away from that responsibility. But those who expect us to serve the nation must also recognise one simple truth:
We are not robots. We are not machines. We are not AI tools. We are human beings.
We have families waiting for us, children who need our time, parents who need our care, and lives beyond targets, reviews, late-night meetings and relentless workplace pressure.
We are not asking for privilege. We are asking for dignity, balance and justice.
The growing culture of excessive working hours, constant pressure and an increasingly toxic work environment cannot become the new normal. Five-Day Banking is one important step towards restoring humanity to our workplaces.
Save the banker. Save the banking family. Respect the commitment already made.
Five-Day Banking is not a luxury.
It is not an unreasonable demand.
It is a just demand whose time has come.
Let us stand together, for ourselves, for our families and for the generations of bankers who will come after us.
Five-Day Banking is For Dignity. For Family. For a Humane Workplace.
March ahead with courage and unity for the three-day strike from 28th to 30th September and make it a resounding success. No fear, no threat and no intimidation can weaken our collective resolve. Officers and employees stand together , we are all strikers in this historic struggle.

इंश्योरेंस पॉलिसी बेचने से लेकर सरकारी योजनाएं ग्राहक को टिकाने तक,
आज की डेट में बैंक कर्मचारियों पर इतना काम लादा हुआ है कि उनपर हुए सर्वे में ज्यादातर “हाई स्ट्रेस” में होने की बात बता रहे हैं।
जिन्हें काम देने में दो मिनट नहीं लगता उन्हें दो छुट्टी देने में धरती फट जा रही है
This strike showed me a side of banking I never expected.
Official bank handles campaigning against their own staff. Employees painted as the enemy of the customers they serve every day.
Then came the silence.
Where were the executives when their people were publicly discredited? Where was anyone questioning an arbitrary PLI scheme?
Speaking against a union is easy. Speaking against employees is easier. Speaking truth to your own institution takes a spine.
Institutional loyalty should never mean surrendering your conscience.
A bank can survive a strike. It should never normalise humiliating its own people.
To fellow bankers: don’t lose your voice just because you wear the same logo. The day employees are afraid to question their own institution is the day it stops having people with a voice and starts having people who only follow orders.
That is a far more dangerous failure than any strike.

चाहे नोटबंदी का दौर रहा हो या कोरोना महामारी की भयानक आपदा, देश की अर्थव्यवस्था की सांसें चलती रहें, इसके लिए बैंक कर्मचारियों ने हमेशा अपनी जान की बाजी लगाकर frontlines पर काम किया है।
जब पूरा देश लॉकडाउन में अपने घरों के अंदर सुरक्षित था, तब भी बैंकर्स रोज़ दफ्तर पहुंचे—ताकि आम नागरिक को राशन के लिए पैसे मिल सकें, सरकारी सहायता राशि समय पर खातों में पहुंचे और देश का पहिया थमे नहीं।
और आज स्थिति यह है कि रविवार, 27 सितंबर को भी बैंक खोले जा रहे हैं!
बैंक कर्मचारियों से देश क्या-क्या अपेक्षाएं रखता है—और वे हर परीक्षा में खुद को झोंक देते हैं।
लेकिन क्या इस समर्पण की कीमत वर्क-लाइफ बैलेंस खोकर ही चुकानी पड़ेगी?
5-Day Banking कोई मांग नहीं, बल्कि बैंक कर्मचारियों का जायज हक है।
जो कर्मचारी बिना किसी शिकायत के दिन-रात देश की सेवा करते हैं, वे भी हफ्ते में 2 दिन अपने परिवार और मानसिक शांति के हकदार हैं।

It’s easy to judge until you step into a branch. Bankers routinely work 10–12 hour days, handle immense stress, strict compliance, financial liability, and zero work-life balance without overtime pay. Asking for a 5-day workweek like almost every other corporate sector, IT firm, RBI, and international bank isn't "laziness"—it's a basic standard for mental health and efficiency.
Public convenience matters, but so does the well-being of the people safeguarding your money.
कहानी यहीं खत्म नहीं होती.. आज देश की पाठशाला में सरकारी और प्राइवेट, दोनों बैंक्स में बैंक कर्मचारियों का क्या बुरा हाल हो रखा है उसका मुद्दा फिर उठाएंगे.. आप भी देखिए @News18India पर कि क्या ही गजब हो रखा है।
बैंक मुनाफे में चल रहे हैं लेकिन बैंक कर्मचारियों को 2दिन की छुट्टी देने में इनको मौत आने लगती है।
जबकि आप ख़ुद देखिए बैंक कर्मचारियों पर काम का कितना प्रेशर है।
अब वो हड़ताल नहीं करें तो क्या करें
Bankers keep India connected 24×7.
But behind every transaction, target and deadline is a human being, with a family, responsibilities and a life beyond the branch.
A 5-day week was agreed in March 2024, with bankers accepting longer working hours from Monday to Friday.
The demand is reasonable. The commitment is proven. The delay is difficult to justify.
Implement 5-Day Banking now.

#5DayBankingNow
India’s banking system is 24×7. Digital banking has expanded rapidly. 24,162 crore UPI transactions, 34.2 crore installations of official mobile-banking apps, 2.60 lakh BC/CSP points and 1.34 lakh PSB ATMs/CRMs. Yet bankers still work 6 days a week. Banking has changed. It’s time for the workweek to change. We demand the implementation of 5-Day Banking.
#5DayBankingNow
Every 24x7 banking service has a banker behind it and a family waiting at home. We agreed to the 5-day week in March 2024 and accepted longer weekday hours. The regulator, the insurer and the Government all work 5 days.
Our demand is just. The delay is not.
