🏦 5-DAY BANKING — WHY SHOULD BANKERS BE TREATED DIFFERENTLY❓
Government offices, courts, schools and many other sectors already function on a 5-day working week. Even in banking, 2nd & 4th Saturdays are already holidays.
When digital banking, UPI, ATMs and mobile banking operate 24×7, why should bank employees continue working on Saturdays?
The 12th Bipartite Settlement already agreed to the 5-day banking framework. What is stopping the Government from implementing it❓
👉🏻 Same country. Same workforce. Same right to work-life balance.
Bankers deserve 5-Day Banking — NOW, not tomorrow.

PSBs TURNED THE STORY AROUND. DID EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION?
From 14.58% GNPA in March 2018 to just 1.93%, Public Sector Banks have delivered a historic turnaround—while achieving record profits with fewer hands.
Yet, 5-Day Banking remains pending, and the revised PLI framework raises serious concerns about employees being left with little or no incentive.
When success is collective, why should recognition be selective?
The people who delivered the turnaround deserve a system that recognises their contribution.
Implement 5-Day Banking. Make PLI fair, inclusive and collective-performance based.

COMMITMENT MADE? THEN WHERE IS THE IMPLEMENTATION?
➡️ 5-Day Banking: Honour the commitment.
➡️ Unilateral PLI: Put it on hold. Withdraw the discriminatory framework.
➡️ PLI: Dialogue, not diktat. Rework it through meaningful bilateral discussions
➡️ Residual issues: Resolve them. No more indefinite delay.
A commitment demands implementation.
Implementation demands accountability.
📢 ONE VOICE. ONE PLATFORM. ONE UNITED DEMAND.

@fboioa_india@aiboc_in Standing firm with bank employees! Fair PLI for every staff member and 5 Days Banking are not privileges — they are rights. Better work-life balance means better service for the nation.
#5DayWeekandFairPLI#FBOIOA#AIBOC
@fboioa_india@aiboc_in The demand for a five-day banking week by bank employees is driven by the need for a better work-life balance, increased productivity, improved customer service, alignment with global work practices, and reduced stress levels. Implement 5 Days Bank &a fair PLI #5DayWeekAndFairPLI
A parliamentary question to the policy makers: If a bank performs above 80%, why must 20% of its officers receive zero #PLI ? And if employees accepted longer daily hours, why must all Saturdays remain pending? This is not reform; it is administrative arithmetic without human fairness. Government must stop forced ranking and honour.

Public sector bank employees transformed the banking landscape, bringing GNPA down from 14.58% in March 2018 to 1.93%, while delivering record profits despite reduced staff strength.
Yet the reward tells a different story.
Five-Day Banking remains pending, while the revised PLI framework may push 20% of officers into zero-PLI brackets.
The message is striking: collective effort for record profits, selective rewards for employees.
Government must end this double injustice. Implement Five-Day Banking and ensure Fair PLI based on collective performance.

905 days since the 9th Joint Note.
997 days since the December 2023 understanding when 5 Day Banking Promise was agreed in written.
Digital payments are 99.7% of transaction volume. Cheques, 2.3% of value. RBI, LIC & GIC already work five days.And Bankers offered 40 extra minutes a weekday for it. Despite everything they failed to keep the promise. A signed commitment is not a suggestion but an obligation.
Read the revised PLI matrix carefully.
In EVERY scenario — even where the Bank scores above 80% and performed magnificently — the bottom bracket receives Rs 0.
Not a reduced award. Zero!
1 in 5 officers, every year, labelled as zero contributor.
Not an incentive, a backfired initiative. We demand #5DayWeekandFairPLI
