Unions and members are aware that on 7th December, 2023, the MoU was signed between IBA and our Unions by the which wage revision was agreed at 17% hike over the wage bill as on 31-03-2022 i.e., a total of Rs. 12,449 crores.

All our units and members are aware that since the term of 11th Bipartite Settlement was getting ended on 31-10-2022, we had submitted our common Charter of Demands to the IBA for the 12th Bipartite Settlement.
Though the demands were submitted to IBA in October, 2022, IBA did not invite the Unions for any negotiations on the same. Hence UFBU met in Mumbai on 12-1-2023 and gave the call for Strike on 30th and 31st January, 2023. Because of this, on 21-1-2023, the Government advised the Banks to commence the negotiations for the 12th BP Talks.

All of us are aware that last year when the management of our Bank issued transfer orders in violation of existing agreements and provisions of Bipartite Settlement to nearly 4000 clerical staff in the name of periodical rotation, and forcibly relieved them ignoring the provisions of I D Act, we gave the call for strike on 30th and 31st May, 2022. During the agitation, on 24-5-2022, management signed an MoU and agreed to review and cancel all the interstation transfers as per the existing Settlement. Hence, our strike was deferred. But management did not implement this MOU. Even the decision of Kerala High Court was ignored.

Our Strike Notice on our demand for adequate recruitments and against outsourcing of regular jobs Conciliation meeting held before CLC, Govt. of India.
As a result of our strike notice and amidst enthusiastic preparation of the various programmes, Shri. Remis Thiru, Chief Labour Commissioner, Ministry of Labour, Government of India had called for a conciliation meeting yesterday afternoon at his office in Delhi.
